We left camp at 9:00.
Our first stop was back down the road at the “End of the Alaska Highway” to take some pictures at the Delta Junction Visitor Center.
We made it to North Pole Alaska. We stopped at the visitor center and then went to the Santa Claus House to do some shopping. A note on the Santa chair stated that he takes a break on Mondays and Tuesdays – so no Santa today. Of course we spent too much money but we did get some cool stuff.
I made a phone call to our friend R&P E, after getting lost, R guided us to where he works, after some talking, we then followed R to his house so I could set up the RV and unload the van.
I made some phone calls and I have booked us the Artic Circle excursion – The first trip I tried to book was a plane flight and drive back, but none was available, so we are taking the ride up and back – ~18 hour trip on a bus. The trip starts at 6:30AM
R&P took out for dinner at the Pump House – wow fancy place or should I say expensive, because we sure did not dress fancy. The place has good food, we had a good time and I have to really thank R&P for treating us to dinner!!!
It has been warm here, we slept with all the windows open, and it was 81 degrees at 11:00 PM with the sun still being up.
The sunsets at 1:35 AM and rises at 4:12 AM
