On the way to Anchorage

Aug 27 Day 29
Well all better, nice nights sleep and we had a great day.  Saw a little more of Alyeska resort and loved it.  You will to it has some neat things.
Also went to Crow Creek Mine, near Girdwood, a mining town and panned for gold.  You will see that too. Oh and also a wedding that was going to happen at the mine.

This resort had a cool bike run, also a neat bar and band

This world had a fire inside to heat the area

These are photos of the bar and ceiling it was beautiful but also fun looking

you get a helmet, has to be this kind so you don't mess up your face or brains. 

You rent a bike for 100 a day

then

You put the bike on a ski lift

then you get on the ski lift behind the bikes

Then you race down the mountain at 40 miles an hope you might win the race

They are all a little nuts like Cory here using his bike as a guitar 

Then you call the Dr. this sign was on the side of the building as you end the race.

Had to enjoy watching these young people loving the thrill.

the beautiful flowers and trees at this resort

After the resort we went to a gold mine to find some money to pay for all this

Dom tried very hard

I found this much, about 50 cents worth

this was the couple that was getting married in the mining town

This is how they kept the soft drinks cool that's ice cold water the little kids loved it

We enjoyed the other sight at the mining town

We met this couple at the Double Musky restaurant Kathy and Bruce,

 I had halibut and Dom had fish pasta yum

Finally at the end of the day on the road called the Turnagain Arm north to Anchorage we see all these people leaving their cars to get this water coming out of a mountain.  They tell us it's the greatest water ever (I'm hoping it cures all my arthritis and makes me 30 years younger.  The most refreshing water I ever tasted, wish I could bring some home to all of you.
