We picked a fun weekend to come down to Seward and watch the Polar Bear Plunge. This fundraiser for the American Cancer Society has been going on for years and years, and this year they’ve raised over $230,000, the second highest fundraiser in Alaska.

We got to see small town Alaska at its best, kicking off with a parade and then the craziness in the harbor—right at the foot of the dock our boat slip is on. Teams of jumpers that had been raising money had a blast—and the crowd did as well.
