Day 2: Anchorage

Anchorage Culture: Today we visited the Anchorage museum and learned about how the Alaska baseball league started and how the Native Americans already  had a similar game that was a combination of baseball, dodgeball and cricket. We explored both Native American and Alaska exploration exhibits. We also spent some time at the Anchorage Saturday Market where we tried some of the local foods. 

Anchorage Adventure: Most of the day was spent on a challenging hike/climb up Flatop Mountain. At the 3,600' summit the views were breathtaking. 

The night was spent eating Alaskan reindeer and baked cod, corn fritters, salad and fries. In a tent next to the restaurant we listened to music and storytelling with Dusty Sourdough about the history of the Alaskan Gold Rush.
