• Day 1 in the RV part (1)

    June 10 in the United States ⋅ ☀️ 48 °F

    Our first leg of the trip was filled with excitement and new experiences. We’ve never rented an RV like this before, so the whole crew was buzzing with anticipation to see how this would all work out. After Leaving with RV, we grabbed a bite to eat and made a grocery run to stock up for the road ahead. Anchorage is lovely in its own right, but once you drive out of the city—the beauty really begins to unfold. It’s breathtaking.

    Ryan did an awesome job as our captain, navigating us smoothly through it all. We made a quick stop at a little ice cream stand that turned out to be a gem—not only was it a perfect place to stretch our legs, but the ice cream was incredible. Everything was homemade, and the cherries in mine came all the way from Oregon. Honestly, it might’ve been some of the best ice cream I’ve ever had! What surprised me was just how many ice cream shops are around—especially in such a cold place!

    One of the most memorable moments from this part of the trip was spotting a moose trotting right down the road. After leaving the ice cream shop, we were telling someone about it and they joked, “Oh yeah, the moose here like to race the cars!” Thankfully, this one kept its distance—but it sure made for a fun story and a wild sight.
