Well after a very fun and exciting week hanging around Anchorage, I'm finally leaving tomorrow for the open road.  I have made so many new friends here.  The couchsurfer Eric I was staying with, had his birthday on Saturday, we had a great weekend celebrating it.

Took me a long time to upload all these pictures and videos, so enjoy!

Fit all this in a duffle bag, uhhh...
