We Found Gold!

Alaska, Road Trip, States

Literally! And figuratively. It’s been a fun day. We’re in the Land of the Midnight Sun and we just had to get up in the middle of the night just to see the daylight out of our hotel window. We rode on the Binkley Family’s Discovery III on the Chena River. We saw sled dogs, reindeer, seaplanes, smoked salmon, native crafts, and more. After a lunch and explore in downtown, we stopped by the Alaska Pipeline Visitors Center before we visited the The El Dorado Gold Mine and enjoyed the showmanship of Yukon Yonda and Dexter Clark. We all found gold in our pans! Later, after a trip to North Pole to visit Santa, we ate our fill at the Alaska Salmon Bake.

OUR VERY

LATEST

National Portrait Gallery

National Portrait Gallery

It was a most educational visit to the newly renovated National Portrait Gallery at Trafalgar Square in Central London. We were intrigued with the contemporary approach to presenting British History.

Bletchley Park

Bletchley Park

It was at Bletchley Park that the Allied Codebreakers deciphered German military messages during the Second World War. A free guided tour gave us a good overview of the campus and the activities that occurred here from 1938 to 1945.

Fenton House and Spaniards Inn

Fenton House and Spaniards Inn

A lovely way to spend a Sunday in Hampstead. We visited the historic Fenton House to view lots of lovely collectibles, to listen to and learn about harpsicords, and to tour and linger in the garden before heading off to the historic Spaniard’s Inn for a most delectable Sunday Roast.
