Got diverted from CID due to a storm in CR. Waiting for maintenance and fuel before we can head to CR now.

Flying home to CID

Then a couple hours at the airport in Fairbanks and an eight hour flight to Minneapolis.

Made the 4.09 mile, nearly 3 hour walk from Denali visitor center back to our hotel… I loved it. Met some nice “locals” and found all the geocaches on my target list.

Watching bears (on tape) catch salmon while we catch dinner.

On the road to our Denali Lodge.

Denali, the mountain, is a no-show thus far. But the nice lady at the gift shop still let me purchase a 30% club fridge magnet.

At the Twister Creek Brew Pub. A really quaint little tourist town with mud streets and boardwalks (thankfully, because it just rained).

On the train waiting while they swap locomotives. Not a quick process.

Waiting for our turn to enter the Anton Anderson Memorial Tunnel…still.
