We took a 12 hour train ride from Anchorage to Fairbanks. We passed through Wasilla which has McDonald’s, subway, Dairy Queen, Pizza Hut.
Moose alerts. The moose hear the train and start running away. Magnificent.
“We’re going to get a good view of The Mountain,” announces the conductor. We have perfect weather and can see Denali several places along the trip.
The aurora borealis was spectacular. I will have much more to say about the experience but it truly was magical. We spent 3 hours in a field watching the natural show.
Besides losing my lens cap, I accidentally sat on my glasses so they are very hard to see out of. I will be visually challenged until Monday.
