2 Nights In Healy, AK For Denali National Park – Here’s What We Did

By 7 Comments

After staying 6 nights in Fairbanks, our next stop was Healy for a couple of nights. We'd love to have stayed there for longer, but due to its close proximity to Denali National Park, accommodation prices in Healy in the summer are expensive.

6 Nights In Fairbanks, AK – Here’s What We Did

By 6 Comments

To kick off our five weeks in Alaska, we spent six nights in Fairbanks. The second largest city in Alaska, Fairbanks was the city I was least impressed by in the 49th state. It's not that it's ugly, it's just not as scenic as other places like Anchorage and Seward. The … [Read more...] about 6 Nights In Fairbanks, AK – Here’s What We Did

We've done a lot of quirky things on our 50 state road trip so far, but I think the quirkiest place we've slept in was a wood stove cabin.

We were there for the Sourtoe Cocktail and only … [Read more...] about 2 Nights In Dawson City, Canada: Toe Drinks, Endless Sunlight, Amazing Views & More

We Drank Whiskey With A Human Toe In It (Sourtoe Cocktail)

Shae and I had been looking forward to doing the Sourtoe Cocktail for about 7 years. Just before setting off on what was meant to be a 5 year, 50 state road trip (which subsequently got extended to 7 years), we came across an article about how a bar in the Yukon needed more … [Read more...] about We Drank Whiskey With A Human Toe In It (Sourtoe Cocktail)

6 Great Wineries & Distilleries In Osoyoos, Canada

Osoyoos in Canada welcomes more than 300,000 tourists each year, not bad for a town with only ~5,500 residents. There are likely many reasons Canadians like to visit there, with its desert-like climate and beautiful Osoyoos Lake being major draws. Another is all its … [Read more...] about 6 Great Wineries & Distilleries In Osoyoos, Canada

After spending a month visiting Washington state, it was time for Shae, Truffles and I to make our way up to state 45 of our 50 state road trip - Alaska.
