Hello Alaska

Well after anticipating this trip for over a year, I finally left Charleston on the east coast early yesterday morning and landed 16 hours later in Alaska’s capital, Juneau.  The sun was still shining, albeit faintly through an overcast sky.  I was pretty tired, having got up early to catch my flight anyway, but I ran into my friends eating dinner in the hotel dining room, so I ordered some dinner and a glass wine and joined them.  I fell into bed exhausted only to be woken by my friend Nancy who finally also made it across the continent from Charleston. We rented a car for a day and these are some of the places we visited today.
