second day of the adventure
Well we took off at 5 am this morning from above Tok and we are in Haines Junction tonight at about 6 pm (now 7 pm). The road was horrible about 50miles from the border on the Alaska side and 50 miles of "shitty" road on the Canadian side. It took us 13 hours to travel 525 miles today. Of course we also had a giantic blowout on our right front tire in the middle of nowhere.I told Ed "I here a noise, what is it? Guess-tire flying everywhere! Ed expertly changed it and now we have no spare-oh boy! So keep your fingers crossed for us tommorrow with no spare till we find someone open and carrying our tire. The weather is beautiful here and we sat out and relaxed for awhile tonite. Also, I'm amazed we have internet here. Well, that's all for now, we will keep you updated when we can. Vicki and Ed

Oh my, not the greatest first day out on the road! Let's hope and pray that the bad stuff is behind you and the rest of the trip goes smoothly. Glad you got some "kick back" time before turning it in. Much love! Mom
I mean your second day out!! Sigh! Mom
If Ed Had been watching NASCAR, he could have changed the tire in 4 seconds!! :oP
Yeesh, Hope it's smoother the rest of the way. I can't believe your not stopping at the hot spring! *lol*
