11 June - Train from Denali to Fairbanks

6/11/2023

Today we did a quick stop at the Denali visitor center and then hopped on a train to Fairbanks.  The train was a double-decker with a seating on the top half (which had a really cool domed glass roof) and dining on the bottom half.  Both the dinner on the train and the views were amazing.

Evidently, they let dogs drive in Alaska.  I guess that explains the cracked windshield and banged up car.

Ouch!  He's stepping on my finger.  You shoud have seen the funny looks we were getting in the visitor center when we posed for this picture.

While we were on the train, we saw two swans a swimmin.  Don't know what happened to the other five.

And we travel on. Leaving one adventure and heading to the next one.
