It worked out with visiting the fish market. However, we were not able to visit the auction because it was already sold out. All tickets (120 per day) were already gone at 6am… Nevertheless, it was interesting and we saw a lot even if not everything was very nice to see except if you also like to visit a slaughter house… My plan was originally to be back on the road at the same day. However, in the evening before, […]
I’m already since a few days in Japan and made it also to Tokyo. So I already survived the first few miles on Japanese streets :-). However, I would like to see much more than just this huge city. I will therefor continue soon towards south and towards the mountains. The volcano Fuji-san will be on my way. But first I had to get here which was a little adventure for itself. Seattle – LA – Narita After arriving in […]
I reached Seattle in the mean time and I’m preparing myself for Japan. However, before I take some conclusions here about the last few months, first a bit about the journey from Whittier (Alaska) to Seattle (Washington). Whittier – Bellingham – Seattle After a wonderful afternoon with Carl and Henry at sea, I spend a somehow cool night aboard the boat from Car. It was raining heavily again in the morning and it was still raining when I made it […]
Time is running: More than five months ago, we started in Los Angeles and after close to 4’000 miles, the journey in Alaska comes slowly but surly to it’s end. However, before I will write a conclusion in the next blog post, first what we did the last two weeks. I will keep it a bit of short in the English version. For more details, please read the German version or use Google Translate. Anchorage – Homer After a few […]
We reached Anchorage in the mean time and are cycling on the Kenai Peninsula. Our last few hundred miles in Alaska. Fairbanks – Denali With reaching Fairbanks, we could finally wash our clothes again, go grocery shopping and enjoy the other annemities of a bigger city. However, we didn’t really see that much of Fairbanks itself. But we got a great show in the night. A friendly neighbor on the campground asked us in the evening, if he should wake […]
It got a bit wilder and more more adventures, finally. Haines Highway: Haines – Haines Junction We were told, that there aren’t any reasonable shops for the next few hundred miles (which was not really true). We bought food for the next 7+ days therefor and our bikes were very heavy when we left Haines. It was cloudy but it was still partly sunny, when we drove along the Chilkat River. It went only slightly uphill, which was good after […]
