There's a moose in the parking lot!

So spring break has began---we got into Bethel after much delay---thats part of the thing out here--when trying to get out of the village you just have to go with the flow--I used to stress out about it, but now I know it is nothing that I can control. Around 6 all four of us were in Bethel ready to fly into Anchorage.

After Bethel it was time to fly to Anchorage, once we got into Anchorage we waited for our shuttle and arrived at our hotel. Then we only had one thing on our mind---real food. The girls and I were hungry, so we went to the OUTBACK---it as delightful--we were able to indulge in some fatty greasy food. I had a burger with bacon and some french fries. How delightful!

Today we were all getting ready when Alison yelled that she saw a moose in the parking lot. A moose in the parking lot????? NO WAY! We all ran to the window, camera in hand--A REAL MOOSE THIS WAS SO EXCITING--This was my first moose sighting ever! Thanks to Jim and his teachings, I am learning what animals look like and can successful identify some of them, so it was exciting to see one of those animals. At first we were just taking pictures from the window, but we went for a walk and got even closer, it was so cool.

So those are the exciting things we have experienced thus far, stay tuned for more. We are awaiting our shuttle to take us to the airport then off to Fairbanks!
