Anchoring Down in Anchorage!
We are settling in at our temporary Anchorage, Ak home. The Garcia Grandparents I'm sure are taking a deep breath and enjoying the silence in their home. Our first nite here we dined on amazing seafood! August ate a Reindeer dog, Ocean chowed my cod, crab cakes and some crab. It was so delicious and we even had room for pie as dessert. I think the place we ate at was called Phyllis' Cafe.
Our second night we drove out by the airport on a service road and watched planes come in. Oh my! Exhilarating! You could smell the jet fuel and feel the rumble in the engines as the aircrafts did their engine run-ups prior to take off. It made me wish I was still a pilot and could fly again. Thanks to my Mom for all the nights we spent at the airport watching take-offs and landings when I was a kid.
From Earthquake park (where we watched most of the planes) we could see across Cook Inlet to the city of Anchorage. Breathtaking as the lights twinkled on the water. We drove around the train station and most of the city. Soon we should have some photos to share.
Till later!
