June 20 -

We are in Dawson City till Sunday morning, so today we took a walking tour around town - very easy to cover the small, compact area - Lots of the businesses have been upgraded and some new construction (Hotels and Inns, and the information centers and museums), but there are MANY that are still in the original buildings - wooden floors, old counters, etc.. Very nostalgic and interesting!  Small antique shop/outfitter store, the usual tourist junk and some VERY fine locally made jewelry stores!  Went down to the ferry landing, where we will board on Sunday morning to leave this area - The Ferry only goes to the shore across the Yukon River, and then we will head on out to Chicken and Eagle and Tok - FINALLY Alaska on Sunday!!!!

Our campground and site - gravel lot, very close together, but very walkable to see the town !!



These 2 pix took 2 hours to load, so maybe more can go tomorrow!  Den is going to go see a gold digging dredge - I am going to try to add more pix while he is gone.... 

 Till then! DnD
