Here I am early on our last morning in Alaska anticipating a journey of some length home to the UK .Dawn is breaking at 3.30 am and the sun never really went down. That's how we feel about the memories of a 10th wedding anniversary trip .When we get home to friends and family we shall have so many good experiences to share.So the Brown Bear ambles on across its beautiful wilderness home as we look forward to seeing Jan and Stan after their Cotswold Way walk.
We have spent three weeks in the Kenai peninsula area of Alaska a relatively small part of this amazing state and yet we have seen and read about so much that the Brown Bear will continue its exploring long after we reach home .
The other evening after a ride to the beach and a chat to Edward we watched a mother moose and her two young yards from the house .It was wonderful to see them up close .We were very still as we had been warned that mother moose are very protective and can charge in a heartbeat if she things they are in danger!
Jan and Stan thank you for helping us plan this trip .It has been unique and could never be replicated . Thank you too Daisy ,Scout ,Finan and Tilly and all our dog friends Guinness and Bud and their packs for enabling this to happen.That includes Hazel ,Jacqui and Craig Evie ,Eva and Mark at home too . Thank you Amanda ,Ellen,Sole ,Faith ,Mary , Kathleen and Matty at Birch Tree Gallery ,Linda ,Edward and members of the Kenaitze tribe ,the Baptist Church at College Heights , the Pendog Obedience group and the catholic Church in Soldotna , Mary Lou and Nicole,Steve and Diane .WE HAVE HAD A BLAST ! See you in Blighty Toodle Pip for now !
Goodbye Denali Country
With love to you all
