Day 18

Saturday - It was a cold rainy day today. Temperatures were in the 40’s when we got up this morning. Our ride north to Anchorage was kind of boring compared to the last few weeks. The clouds were so low that we could only see ¼ to ½ of the mountains. As we got into Anchorage it did clear off some. We did meet with my cousin David in the afternoon. He showed us around town and we eat at a very good Mexican Restaurant. His wife Robin recently broke her leg (a compound fracture) and is in a lot of pain so we did not get to meet her. We had a good time together and are looking forward to meeting with them and Marcus’ tomorrow afternoon at our campsite. After we came out of the restaurant the sun was shining brightly but only for a short time. We were soon driving through rain again.
