Whittier

Tuesday, December 13, 2005

On my first day we went to the oddest/coolest city, Whittier.

This is the most interesting city created from an old Navy base. Until recently the city was inaccessible by car, until they built a two mile long tunnel under the mountains. A single lane opens to one direction at a time. Picture NORAD. Most of the population lives in the large building behind me. Everyone gets around the city in underground tunnels.


The scenery on the trip up was amazing. An icy angry grey sea, frozen waterfalls, glaciers, and incredible mountains.



After Whittier we met some of the wildlife…




Then saw the best store in Anchorage, Gold Rush Liquors.


Yes that’s right, drink Tecate and win a snow blower. Weird.
