We made it to Anchorage

As we flew into Anchorage, looking out of the airplane it was totally overcast to the east, but we could see beautiful totally snow covered peaks sticking above the clouds which reminded us of Nepal. It was a long day of traveling with long delays, missed connections and missing luggage. However we finally made it to Anchorage, have all our gear, and managed a trip to REI. We are off to Soldotna, and will fly to the bear camp tomorrow. Our goals for the vacation are:
  • Don't get mauled by a bear
  • Don't require any medi-vacs or rescues
  • See beautiful Alaska and get lots of good pictures

Stay tuned, more to come.
