Back towards the north and some better weather.

This is a picture of us washing up. Olivia is learning to take a good photo, if any picture of someone washing up can be truly good.

 We managed to make some ok chocolate as well as some "acceptable" ice cream.

 We are now parked at a place on the Glenn highway, right next to a creek. We went for a hike for about an hour and saw a squirrel and some moose tracks.

Glacier time

Some snow at last. This is at the Worthington Glacier. Olivia is making her first snowball. Well, actually, her second. After her first disintegrated, Daddy showed her how to make one with integrity.

 Walking up towards the glacier which can be seen in the valley up above.

 Behind Olivia is a small lake which the glacial river runs into. It is still mostly frozen on top but you would sink through if you walked on it.

 Olivia and Shannon walking at the top of a hill at Blueberry lake, where we spent the night. It got pretty cold outside. Down to 5 degrees and 9 on the inside of the RV. The mist soon rolled in to make it quite eery, but we had a fun fire and we ate, looking out onto the mountains beyond.

In Alaska and Having Fun

The first night, we stayed at an RV park on the way to Glennallen. A hundred or so miles from Anchorage. The next morning, we went for a hike up a hill to see the glacier.

 From the hill above, we could see our RV below. Our RV is the one closest my shoulder.

 Here is a closer version. It has a shower, toilet, oven, stove, sink, beds, table, lounge, tv with dvd player that doesn't play our Australian DVDs like Frozen.

After that, we drove to the Wrangell National park.

 This is Mt Drum. The smallest of the bunch.

 We camped next to a water fall called Liberty Falls. It was a beautiful spot right next to the rapids which we could hear all night.

 Olivia wanted her PP2 class to see her hiking boots. This is the view from the passenger's seat when the passenger is getting bored.
