Alaska Trip Day 1-May 24 2012- 850 k

 

  1. Up at the crack of dawn and headed out for fuel then a stop for coffee to say my goodbyes and leave money for the group lottery purchase. Alaska Day 1 003
  2. Fuel again at Esponola and just after crossing into the USA……
  3. Stopped at a modest campground with cabins…..they only had 1 room left in the house and the old lady with the long crooked fingernails said I would be sharing it with some other guests. Take the room upstairs at the end of the hall she wailed and take this broom to sweep the cobwebs  its been awhile since anyone used it……I could sense a look of anguish as she said I wouldn’t need a key…..perhaps she thought I would ask for my money back……why didn’t I………the wi fi is crazy….I will try and upload a pic…then its of to bed.Alaska Day 1 008 
  4. No electricity….crap…where’s the toilet
