Whittier 

Whittier was so fun but cold!   We went into the visitor center to get the information about the one way tunnel.  I admit - I was a bit nervous.  I thought it was open for a time in the morning to traffic in and then open in the afternoon for traffic out. Then in between it is open to the train.  But it alternates all day long in 30 minute intervals so it really wasn't a concern.  Leandro said he enjoyed the challenge of keeping the car on the road/railroad tracks for the 2.5 miles.  It was dark and strange but overall fun. 

The town was interesting.  I can't imagine living and working with almost all of the towns inhabitants (273 of them)  in one apartment complex. There are a few single family condos but very limited.  Yet at times a cruise ship will dock there and unload thousands of people!

Forutnatly they were not there when we were.  We immediately went to a restaurant to eat as there were not many open.   Delicious clam chowder!!
