Anchorage city tour - It was a perfect day to tour the city and Gary was wonderful. He talked about the history of Alaska and how Anchorage was established. Enjoyed Lake Hood, the sausage/ meat factory, the chocolate/ berry store. Most rewarding was driving down the Seward highway, seeing the waters and the waterfall. Clicked great pics. Back before sunset in time for dinner. Gary pointed out few restaurants in downtown too!
