Food was kind of expensive in Canada and Alaska. We ate out most of the time, just not enough time to cook. When we stopped at local restaurants it cost near $40 to eat. Campground were mid $25 range, I did not feel too bad about. 8 hour boat tour was not to bad either,... $123.00 for the both of us. No flats tires, we did get a small chip in the windshield. We did pay for WiFi several nights. Campgrounds had codes for WiFi and codes to use bathrooms. We had only one pay shower. $2.25 for 6 mins. at Dawson City.
SantaLand Campground (North Pole) had a free city tour, free car/camper wash, free WiFi, Free showers, nice! Millers Landing Campground (Seward Alaska) we had to share our electricity, run a long extension cord, Campsite was dirt, (mud) bathrooms were the pits, had to pay $20.00 for WiFi.
We could have stayed a few more days in Alaska, but really felt we had seen the highlights and was ready to start back. Done Alaska highway, Dawson City, Top of the World highway, Chicken Alaska, Tok, Seward and a wildlife boat tour, Anchorage twice, Denali National Park as much as they will let you see, without riding their buses. Fairbanks, Fairbanks Arctic Cam, The North Pole, Alaska. Got to see a lot of the pipeline. Valdez, Bear, coyote, Moose, Whales, glaciers, snow caped mountains, some ruff roads, a lot of really nice people.
Gas stations are not what we normally think of them around here. 30, 40 year old pumps stuck in the middle of nowhere are still gas stations. You will have to use them because they are the only pumps around. Just a little different way of doing things I really wanted to pick up a case of Diet Mt. Dew, but seemed no one sold any. I had to start drinking coffee to get my Caffeine.
I think somebody needs to build a "Welcome to Alaska" place at the Alaska highway border. Something big,... nice,... flags waving,... all lite up. There really isn't much till Tok.
Lots of driving, but it was fun! Alaska highway was great! For all the people that said three weeks was not enough time, well..... We think it was. I say poo to you!
