Day 28
Was cold in the tent last night the temperature has dropped
considerably but still managed to get a good sleep but was hard getting out of
me cosy sleeping bag into cold clothes. Getting more efficient at breaking down
my camp but still slow process and being eaten by mosquitoes does not aid the
process but does make me more efficient. Heading back to Watson Lake info
center as I had a coffee and film date with the nice lady there turned out it
was not only me every one gets free coffee and the film was a 18 minute film on
the Alaska Highway which was interesting had a cookie coffee and a mars bar for
breakfast whilst watching a documentary nice slow way to start a day. Also
walked around the signpost forest for a while and it was 11.30 before I hit the
road. The scenery was a bit harsh than yesterday maybe this was because the sun
was not shining but still very interesting. Not so much wildlife today only
nearly squashed a squirrel as I left the campsite and also saw a fox on the way
into Watson lake have seen a few of these over last couple of weeks. The
weather got colder and wetter as the day went on so on went the went the jumper
and the winter gloves will need to think about pulling out the thermals if this
continues as I was just on the edge of being comfortable if it gets colder I
will need more layers. Found a hostel in Whitehorse last bed going which was I relief
as I was cold and wet and smelly and dirty. Had a shower and went to the
supermarket to get some dinner and something against the mossies’ I am going
chemical on them even if it kills me the process. Charging everything up as I have not had easy
access to power and the net the last couple of days and enjoying Jamaican
Ginger Beer and chocolate biscuits burp! Day of the bike tomorrow hope it stops
raining.
