Wanted to document our adventure down the Alaskan Highway. We drove 2600 miles in 7 days with two 18 month olds and a dog! We actually survived this journey and looking back it was an enjoyable ride. The twins did great with movies, snacks, new toys and music. (We probably listened to their favorite CD about 300 times or more. This was the only way they would sleep or be happy when mad) We saw 5 black bears, 5 moose, a ton of buffalo, 4 mountain goats, 1 caribou, and 3 deer. Here are some pictures of the first half of our trip. We have some great video of the twins on our journey that will be posted later.
Our awesome Trailblazer loaded to full capacity. Devin stretching his legs. The twins liked waking up early so this picture was actually taken at 5:45 in the morning. Made for some beautiful scenery.
Lindsey enjoying a few minutes out of the car. This was at a "rest area" in the Yukon Territory.
Dylan chillin in his sunglasses. He loves wearing these things. This was his seat the entire way down.
This caribou crossed the road in front of us and posed for a picture :)
This buffalo also crossed the road. The funny part is that we were in construction zone and there was a lady on some equipment 15 yards from this thing laughing. The Truck behind us stopped, got out (brave man) and took an even closer picture.
Dylan running around in the rain. We tried to stop every two hours which was about 100 miles. We did on average 400 miles a day.
Lindsey love smelling flowers. This picture captures her joy in smelling them.
Our two little moosies. This is in British Columbia I think day 4.
This is in the sign forest in Watson Lake. Day 5. This forest has over 62,000 signs from all over the world. This picture would have been even better if the Idaho plate was a Utah plate but we can pretend.
Another picture of our wonderful Trailblazer.
