Day 15 - Thursday June 24th

Travelled from Tok, Alaska to Palmer, Alaska.
This is why we came to Alaska!!!
We saw scenery today that takes your breath away. The mountains once again are just too beautiful to describe. As we turned each corner Grant and I were both ooohing and ahhing at the spectacular beauty we were seeing. Andrea could hear all this on her mic and said it sounded like we were having an "Alaskan Orgasm"!!. Too funny!! Just magnificent, indescribable scenery all day. The roads were so much better than yesterday but we still hit many "gravel" patches. This was probably the best motorcycle road we have ever been on!! Saw the Matanuska Glacier and walked about a mile towards it to get a closer look. Very very spectacular!! The high temp today was 18'C which was much more comfortable for riding than yesterday. We are staying tonight in Palmer which is a nice little town. We have now covered 6,100KM !!
It is so hard to believe we are actually in Alaska. Home seems so far away,and is so far away. The group we are travelling with are awesome, great people. We have so many laughs!!! Can hardly wait for tomorrow!!
