The Alaska Highway
The trip is a huge success in spite of having a terrible cough and sore throat which we are all sharing now. I've never been on such a wonderful road trip as this. Northern BC is spectacular. We...

Yes, those are in kilometers, Juju. I will let you know closer to those dates. We are leaving Anchorage tomorrow, but will drag our feet to see those elusive caribou, so I am not sure when we will...

GR, I think it is going to be hit or miss with us meeting up in Haines, unless we do it by accident, as I will NOT have an internet enabled phone, well, won't even actually have a phone that works in...

And my problem is that today we are two days ahead of schedule, but know we have to balance things out to catch certain precooked ferries, and we will soon say goodbye to our New Zealand friends. It's...

Precooked? Oh, this iPad thinks it can replace what I really write! I can't figure out how to deny its suggestions!

We are at the end of the Spit in an RV Park. We plan to do the wildlife centre, the meadery, Dave wants to do a kayak trip around the Spit. What about meeting for a drink somewhere late in the...
View ArticleRe: The Alaska Highway
GR, a drink would be nice (Mr Cat loves scotch). We'll aim for 5:30-6, if that works for you. Is the rv park really at the base of the spit (rather than the tip)? I can see it from my window across...

It is called homer spit rv camp...last one on the right before you get to the condos. It might be umbrella weather today, or we might decide to go somewhere from here. What a difference one day can...

Gr, we'll be there. There seem to be a number of bars, including the one at the condos (the chart room) so if we can't sit out, we can always go somewhere. See you later!

Met ChinaCat today with Mr CC and had a lot of fun getting acquainted. We decided to redefine Celsius and Fahrenheit by declaring equal points of bloody cold (Celsius) and damn cold (Fahrenheit)....

And then Bigdog and I met up with GR and hubby in Haines, AK! We had the good sense to meet IN a bar, although that day was absolutely gorgeous weather, just about perfect, and I was looking around...

We are home at last, too! It was fun seeing you in Haines. We didn't laugh ONCE, did we? That BigDog is such a hoot, and you are the perfect straight woman for him. We went back to reassure the Blarn...

That sounds great. Send me a photo if you get there. After being away three months, I just want to be home, but I know Dave doesn't think that way. I think we have dust because our heating cooling...

Yeah, it got dark here tonight by around 10 o'clock. What's up with that? One night on the ship I photographed sunset at 10:30 pm. And there was a lot of twilight after that. And then the sun came up...
