Day Three - June 14, 2010

Survived another day of driving... 398 miles today. The first two hours were GORGEOUS!!! Here's the link for my photo album: http://travel.webshots.com/slideshow/577942004gqACUP. I'll post a slide show later if I can of the pics from just today.

What surprised me is that there's not much to do here. I'm used to the US where there are tourist traps everywhere. I was expecting lots of places to stop and check out. You know, those places with cheesy souvenirs: magnets, postcards, mugs, hats, t-shirts, etc. Nope, nothing here. Maybe when I hit the Alaska border, I'll have more opportunities to buy silly stuff. There are plenty of places to camp, though.

I can say that Canada has WalMart, Subway, and Dairy Queen. I finally found Starbucks listed in the phone book. Haven't seen them at every other exit like I'm used to. We are staying at some no name hotel in Price George, BC, Canada tonight. I think this is the biggest city we'll see until we get to Anchorage.

Getting closer. Whoo-hoo!!

Take care,
Sandra

  3. Pictures are awesome! Can't wait to hear more. Safe travels!
    btw, you need to update the date on your camera. I might start thinking you're using old pictures, are still in Sac and just making the whole moving to alaska thing up. :)

  4. I agree with the camera date... Change it. I know I'm anal but it's the small things that count right? I'm glad you're enjoying the move and can't wait till you get settled so I can come and visit you.
