Back in Whitehorse, YT

Wow, very slow start this morning... didn't wake up until 8 a.m.! I think everyone up here stays up late, and wakes up later. Campsites seem quiet until 8 where in California you see folkes up at 6 or 7 with fires going and bacon cooking. Right now sunsets are at about 10:30 p.m. so my going to bed routine includes covering vents and windows, so it is pretty dark in the RV! Pretty easy to sleep through sunrise since I managed to block out sunsets! We have never used a flashlight since we left California!

Stopped at an old historic bridge at Canyon Creek as we headed to Whitehorse and stretched our legs. Got into town about 1:00 p.m. and had a late lunch at Starbucks. (They don't serve fish!?)

Picked up a few groceries at Walmart and then went over to Yukon Brewing for our brewery tour. They have been making award winning beer and whiskey for the last 22 plus years, selling Canada wide, and internationally, but just find the USA taxes and regulations too much for their small company. So they can't even sell in Alaska, even though they share a border. The beer would have to go through Vancouver and back out through Seattle to get it to Alaska....anyway we also got to taste a number of their beers, which sounds great until you actually try tasting 6 or 7 beers in 15 minutes....I usually take my time with a beer!

Checked into the RV park so we could use their laundry and showers. We think we will be dry camping the next couple of nights so thought we would start clean! Weather back in the 70s, but anticipating some warmer days ahead!Read more
