These are the fantastic sights we saw on our flight to Anchorage, as well as a great view of Mt McKinley.
Our luggage arrived quite fast comparatively unscathed,
but the motel pick up shuttle somehow too a bit longer than the quoted '10 minutes'... It was an hour and 15 minutes to be precise, and although standing in the warm sunlight surrounded by snow-apples mountains was a nice place to wait, it did eat into out "gettin' stuff done" time.
Eventually the bus found us and we got to our motel. After doing our gear, it was time for a feed, as the budget airline we'd been on for the past 5 hours didn't have any food... Well, none that wasn't overpriced!
Arby's was the choice of the day again, although I made the mistake of ordering a 'medium' meal... I should have gone with a small, as the medium is HUGE!
We spent the rest of the late afternoon and evening grabbing a small selection of snacks and groceries for the next few days on the road, and the evening assembling the bikes... A long process, especially when fatigued!
Will arrived safe and well at 2100, which to all three of our body clocks was midnight, so once he'd got his gear in the door, we pretty much all cakes it a night.
Having broad bright daylight at 2230 is going to take some getting used to, especially in a tent, but I think we'll manage.
Will woke this morning to an iPhone in the face, as he needs to get used to there being no privacy or decorum when it comes to life on the road with us... Hahaha. He's taking it all in his easy-going affable stride..!
Now it's his turn to get all his gear assembled.
Ladies. Watch out. He's used to letting his hair down whilst shirtless, so we may be sexing up the posts a bit more for you from now on...
Tom is doing the email thing and some recon on my iPad. I'm doing this update. And then I'd better do the final pannier pack...
RWK.
OUT!
