Day 65, Tue, Aug 7, 2007, Fairbanks, AK

Today we found the Fort Wainwright Army base and make a quick stop at the BX to get a few needed items. We had hoped to be able to camp there, but their RV park is under construction, so we are not able to do that. We then drove around the base to see what we could find. They have a new hospital that just opened this summer which is really nice.

Later on we found Pioneer Park where we spend quite a bit of time. We took the train ride around the park which was fun. Then we went into several of the little shops before we found the Alaska Salmon Bake. This is the best place in the world to get all the prime rib, baked king salmon, fried halibut and cod you can eat, along with baked beans, potato salad, bread and salad. It also includes drinks and dessert with coffee. Wow, what a meal!
