After staying at the Hilton Harborside hotel in Boston Friday night we had three flights to get us to Fairbanks....
We departed at 7am from Boston to Seattle. (6hr flight) We met up with Pat and Bill in Seattle and had lunch before boarding our next flight Seattle to Anchorage.(3 1/2hr flight). Another layover where we enjoyed some drinks before we boarded our flight from Anchorage to Fairbanks (1hr flight). All in all we traveled for 14plus hours since we arrived in Fairbanks at 5:30pm which was really 9:30pm to us.
One thing I need to mention at this point is that Alaska had a very mild winter.... nothing like CT. Also they are experiencing record warmth early this year. Snow is gone, bugs have emerged, and most places don't have air-conditioning. Why on the year I decide to visit is this the case???
Once we arrived we decided to have dinner. We ate outside on their patio overlooking the Chena River. 87 degrees sunny but dry.... who would've thought?
Then although the sun only goes down from 11:30pm until 4am....we decided to try to get some sleep!
