SUMMER 2002 - WEDNESDAY

This being the last full day our guest will be in Alaska, some want to go to the Wednesday Market in search of souvenirs. While others want to see some places of interest here in Anchorage.

They met Debbie downtown for lunch.






That night we went out to dinner at a little Mongolian Bar-B-Que Place.

After dinner we went to Earthquake park for some exercise.

Here are Brian, Amanda, Vanessa and Brent as we arrived at the park.







Throughout the park there were signs and marble monuments with information about the big earthquake that happened back in 1964. It measured 8.6 on the Ricter Scale and was felt over 500,00 square miles. The quake lasted almost 5 minutes and destroyed many homes and business in Anchorage.







Bill thought it was "cool" to have his picture made with all the girls!


















It seems I always have to catch Richard on the fly, but I did manage to capture him a few times.
















If that were not enough exercise, we went to Kincaid Park to see if we could spot a moose. It was gettin late and the sun was dropping, so it was hard to see. Amanda was driving her car in the led of our little convoy and lo and behold there was a moose. Bill and I managed to get this photo.










The lodge in Kincaid park is a very nice facility with pretty landscaped grounds. We took a number of pictures while we were out there. Some folks were inside looking at the displays and others had stolled off to enjoy the sunset.

After all that walking and siteseeing, we were hungry so made a stop on the way home to have an ice cream. It had been a very hot day here and the place was crowded. Once we got our ice cream, we went outside and stood in the shade to eat.

So then it was on home, after a very active day!
