Travelled from Homer, Alaska to Anchorage, Alaska
Once again we had a yummy breakfast made by Paula!! Interesting how Willie put his sugar in the syrup container mistaking it for his coffee!! We all had a great laugh and I warned Will that this had to be put in my blog!! Before leaving Homer we travelled up a large hill to a look-out where we were able to see the entire town of Homer. Very spectacular to see! Today we travelled all day in the rain - sometimes it was just drizzling, sometimes raining harder. Temp was around 11’C which was quite chilly when you also have the rain. Once again thank goodness for my heated liner! We drove through Anchor Point which is the most westerly point you can drive to in North America. Two years ago we were on the most easterly point when we visited Cape Spears in NFLD. Lots of snow still on the roadside in some areas! Along the coastline there is salmon fishing charters and a very busy tourist attraction for this area. We passed a number of people fly fishing in the Kenai River. Stopped for lunch along the river and had moose chili which was quite good.
Before arriving at our B&B we walked along the Rabbit Creek boardwalk in Potter’s Marsh which is where Uncle Al the kiddies pal saw his first moosie!! Anchorage is embraced by six mountain ranges, over 2,000 resident moose, home to the brown and black bear, fox, lynx, Dall sheep and numerous species of birds! We ordered supper in and enjoyed some Greek salad, pizza and chicken wings! We have travelled a total of 7,000KM to date!!! We will enjoy sleep tonight!
