Key Tov Blog is on the road again, RVing in the great state of Alaska!
If you recall (a year ago in May) we flew from Honolulu to Oklahoma and then drove to Alaska. (You may find those blogposts in our archives for May 2013.) We were immediately hooked on RVing!
This trip was quite a bit shorter, flying from Honolulu to Anchorage. We took an overnight flight and then Great Alaskan Holidays shuttled us to pick up our RV.
Our first stop was Cabela’s of course! Next step, we parked our RV at a friend’s place in Anchorage (near 2nd Avenue) and caught up on some sleep! Thank you very much nice friends in Anchorage for the great views!
Amazing view from our RV bedroom! Can you say...FAVOR! Just LOOK at all those wildflowers! Plus an ocean view! |
Our location was near Ship Creek and the Alaska Railroad system. My girls really got a kick out of watching all the trains go by!
As soon as we woke up, we checked out the Tony Knowles Coastal Trail. The trailhead was less than a five minute walk from our friend's place. It is a really great trail full of beautiful, one of a kind wildflowers!
Never tires of watching for trains! |
We saw small wildlife including a muskrat who was not at all happy about the ducks invading his home!
|
The trail is great for train watching, biking, roller blading, dog walking, and watching the sunset on the mudflats at midnight. All along the trail we found friends who had met up to sit on driftwood to visit, play their guitars, and watch the wildlife.
This picture was taken after 9:00 p.m. living up to Alaska's name...Land of the Midnight Sun! |
After our evening stroll (almost 9:30 pm), we headed into town to check out the city sights.
Likes to climb poles! |
Alaskan flowers are amazing! There has been no saturation added to this photo...just all God's glory! |
City of Anchorage, we enjoyed you!
