A Day in Anchorage!

We were so fortunate to have my brother, Bob, as our guide! He has lived in Alaska for a long time and was able show us so much more than we ever would have experienced without him!!
After our trip on his boat, which was an experience of a lifetime in itself, we went to Anchorage to visit the Anchorage Museum. Unfortunately, we didn't take our camera with us so no pictures but it was an amazing facility with wonderful exhibits showing examples of first nation culture and Alaskan history!


After our visit to the museum and lunch at an amazing Chinese restaurant...we all agreed it was one of the best we've had...he took us to see the Alaska Aviation Heritage Museum. Although I must confess that I didn't visit myself, Tony, John and Alyce all agreed that it was VERY interesting!







Continuing with our tour, Bob showed us the way the "The Fancy Moose"... where we stopped in for a drink. It's located in a hotel where the lobby has beautiful Alaskan decorations!






Our little home in Tom's beautiful green front yard! It was our home for the time that we spent with Bob. On this night, Tony took a picture of a beautiful rainbow!!
