Day 66

We had a good day of travel to Skagway, mostly sunny some construction early then we turned on to the highway to Skagway about 100 miles from the junction. The road was nice and the scenery was beautiful. Unfortunately not much chance for photos in that we were driving into the sun alongside a beautiful lake about 30 miles long nestled between the mountains. Hopefully we will get some photos when we leave. Just before we reached the US Customs there was about an 8 mile steep winding road that we thought would never end. After setting up we walked into town for dinner and to see the changes from 30 years ago and they were very apparent like the gravel main street is now paved but the board walks are still there. A few of the business were still in operation as they were then. Skagway has one grocery store, one bank, one gas station about three year round restaurants and small shops. This is the end/start of the Inland Passage for cruise ships, three were in port today. As of today we have driven 7,550 miles and are 4,000 miles from home.
