26 June 08, Thursday 

This is a day of rest from driving.

 

We visited the University of Alaska Museum and had a chance to see the wild animals; how huge they are from close by. They were only stuffed but the size is impressive. I don’t even want to meet a wolf in the wild, never mind a bear. The museum is housed in an extremely modern building; the video show about the aurora borealis was very interesting.

I bought a beaver hat to replace the nutria hat someone exchanged by mistake in out Church very many years ago.

In the evening we attended a show about the city of Fairbanks and why it even exists. It was funny.
