The trip across Canada was rainy, cloudy, sunny and quiet. Not many people were on the road...or possibly in the whole territory.
I wish I could describe the beauty...and the variations. We passed a few incredible lakes. Absolutely pristine. Not a boat in sight. Then we climbed a mountain and I seriously thought it was going to snow on us. We were so high, it was only the road, some rocks and the marmots.
Ascending was another tiring, windy trek, but the reward was to cross the border back into Alaska. Funny how being on American soil just makes you feel more comfortable.
Into Haines we went. I was hell bent for election so there were no side treks at "scenic outlooks". We arrived and easily found the hotel Brandon had recommended. "Captain's Choice" was right on the water. It was the best view in the whole town. Huge props to Brandon!!!!!!
After a yummy meal, some quiet time for everyone and a stroll on the rocky beach, we remembered to pull out the birthday roll for Tim. Yeeeahhhh....think this birthday calls for a "do over"...
