After having a couple hours of sleep, I got up at 8:00am so that I could call and hopefully reschedule the glacier boat cruise that we were supposed to go on today. Lucky for us they said due to the circumstances, we could reschedule for tomorrow with no charge. With that task done, it was back to sleep for a few more hours.
We left the hotel around 11:30am for the nine hour drive back to Anchorage. The way home included driving down the Glenn Highway which we were going to do anyways tomorrow. The trip from Fairbanks to Glennallen was an added bonus.
The day was long but we did manage to see so much more of Alaska than we anticipated. The highlights included stopping to check out the Santa Claus House in North Pole, Alaska, seeing the Alaskan pipeline and just taking in all of the scenery. Fortunately for us, we had another warm sunny day.
We finally got back into Anchorage around 9:30pm and we went straight to the Olive Garden for a late dinner before going home.
