Day 51, Tue, Jul 24, 2007, Anchorage, AK to Seward, AK

This morning we woke up to rain again. We broke down camp and filled up with gasoline at $2.959/gallon on the base and headed south toward Seward.

We drove in light rain most of the day, but it was still a nice drive. We arrived in Seward around 4:00 PM and checked into our campsite at the Seward Resort – US Army Alaska at the north end of Seward.

We drove on down the road we came in on until we could go no further and ended up at Miller’s Landing. While there we ran into a friend of GB Jones (our musher friend) who has one of GB’s dogs, Ida. It was good to meet Jessie Jones (no relation) and to see Ida again. After a short visit we ended up in town, drove around a bit, and then found a nice restaurant with some of the best food we’ve had, but the worst service and the food was not at all hot. Then we headed back to camp and called it a day.

The low this morning in Anchorage was 52 and it was 52 degrees the rest of the day all the way to and including Seward.

Sunrise in Seward is 5:18 AM, sunset is 10:48 PM
Gas in Seward is $3.209/gallon.
