Well Trinny arrived in Alaska last night around midnight. Arrived very hungry as United Airlines don't serve food on flights departing after 8pm so dinner was 2 small packets of Pretzels - that was all that was available on a 4 and half hour flight! Made the most of the complimentary breakfast this morning!
Raining when we arrived, thankfully today was fine and sunny. Didn't get going until noon as went back to bed for a couple of hours sleep after breakfast! Went on an hour long city tour to get the feel of the place, Spent a few hours at the Museum and art gallery. Some really interesting exhibts about the history of Alaska. Also a great exhibition on the Yuungnaqpiallerput and their way of life - how they incorporate their culture and theo;ld ways of living into their lives today.
Have just been downtown for dinner - had a lovely red salmon chowder.
Free internet at the hotel so I am doing my emails to keep my self awake.
An aside - all the airports have places for people to plug in their laptops and work. This hotel has wireless and internet is free. I think this is what we should be providing also! Oh well off to watch some American TV.
