Anchorage to Seattle


This has been a wonderful beginning to our trip. In the last post I said we couldn't get on a different flight to Seattle. Well, we indeed did. When we got off the plane in Juneau, AK we went straight to the ticket
counter and asked if there was another flight that might get us to Seattle earlier? Lo and behold, they gave us seats on the plane we just got off from and away we went. So instead of getting to Seattle at 9 PM we arrived at 4 PM. We will now be able to get a good night's sleep before the grueling flight to London. Another good thing happened while we were checking in at Anchorage, Alaska Airlines checked our bag all the way to London. That is really wonderful. We won't have to worry about that until Saturday morning. Hopefully it will get there.

Something else didn't happen as well that we were worried about. Mt. Redoubt remained quiet at least until we left. Have no idea what it's doing now and don't really care!

I did pack the SD card reader in the checked bag so I can't update any of the pics until Saturday. I'm not going to buy another because we already have three. Obviously I've done something similar before.

We are supposed to leave at 7:50 AM tomorrow for New York and the Seattle airport doesn't have "public" wifi so won't have an entry until New York or London. Don't know what the wifi situation is at JFK in New York. So hope the rest of the trip goes as well as this part has so far. More later.
