5/28/2010




After a big breakfast of reindeer sausage and sourdough pancakes we headed south away from the smoke caused by the forest fire in Tok. The residents there were concerned because everything is so dry. We took several photos on the way to Anchorage, the photos do not do justice to the landscape, the snow on the mountains and the picture of the glacier do not do justice to the real thing. The airplane in the picture is a common sight, you can't see the runway, but it was gravel and had rolling hills. It must be an exciting ride to take off or land there. The traffic upon entering Anchorage was very busy, Anchorage is a lot bigger that what I thought it was. [250,000] We have almost 20 hours of daylight every day,This has raised havoc with our sleeping. It's light when we go to bed and light when we get up. We have driven 3800 miles so far. Tomorrow we will go to Seward, and hope to spend two days there.

  1. Ken and Judy - We have been following you folks and are very envious. The scenery is
    gorgeous. What's the name of the glacier? It looks familiar.
