Day 1 Travel Day

Saturday, June 23, 2018
Saint Petersburg, Florida, United States
Hi again!! It’s been awhile since my last blog, Thanks to a new site I am able to store the prior trips as well as continue to document new ones. Missing is my sidekick and trusted navigator, Alex, who is spreading his wings and beginning to choose his own path and direction. He will be missed.
Day 1 was travel day, long long travel day, with no major stories to tell. There was one occasion though when it appeared we may be diverted as the dreaded announcement, “is there a doctor or medical professional on board” was made about 5 hours into our flight. Fortunately, I believe the individual was stabilized and did not require an emergency landing. 
Jumping into my uber after arriving in Anchorage, my trusted driver and I headed to my Airbnb as I watched several small planes land on a lake. I forgot how there are more planes then cars here. I was very pleased at my choice in accommodations for the next 2 nights, finding the home best described as a successful modern hippy style in an upper middle class neighborhood. The host was very nice and I dropped my bags off before heading out to dinner at the recommended Rusted Goat, just down the road, where I had a mushroom pizza and locally brewed IPA’s. Slightly chilly out, I walked back to the room for the night. The fun starts tomorrow.
