glacier_kittyHeyy I am in Valdez with Dana! Saturday night I picked her up from the airport..she couldn't believe how light it was haha. We got a rental car and went to my apartment. Sunday we had breakfast at Sourdough Sam's, went to Gulliver's books, went to the visitor center, walked by the river, went walking at Creamer's Field and got attacked by 239679 mosquitoes, watched some of a movie, then went to mom's house for a barbeque. She saw all the kitties and heard Greyboy's weird meow haha. We watched a movie after dinner then went back to my apartment, watched more of the other movie and went to bed. Busy day..so tired!
Today we got up early (to sunny skies..I am sun bringer :D), got stuff from Fred Meyer and started the trip to Valdez! So exciting to drive the road with someone who never has before. I'm so glad the weather was pretty nice and the mountains (mostly) weren't hidden by clouds. She was awed and couldn't get over how beautiful it was. We stopped at the good places of course..the Knotty Shop, Rika's Roadhouse, random pullouts, etc. We of course hiked up to Worthington Glacier. :D There was still last winter's snow on the glacier and in big piles on the side of the road and in the parking lot! WOW haha. I'm glad Worthington doesn't change as dramatically as Exit Glacier. Then we continued to Valdez and got our hotel room. We were STARVING haha..dinner at the Italian restaurant I usually go to was soo good. :P Now we're just relaxing yayy. The wildlife/glacier cruise is tomorrow! It would be nice if it was sunny, but I will be happy if the clouds aren't obscuring the mountains and they just stay high up. Wow I'm SO tired now *skips meme* :P
