5 July
Fort Nelson, Canada to Grand Prairie, Canada
7 hrs 21 minutes
Today was a pretty boring and long driving day. We didn't have any fun stops for the day and just pressed on towards Grand Prairie.
We did stop in Dawson Creek to get a photo with the famous "Alaska Highway" sign. Before I even stepped out of the car a man walked over asking if I could take their picture, of course I said yes and when I got over to his family standing under the sign he says to me "If you could get the sign in the picture, that's be great." Ha ha, I couldn't help but laugh and really wanted to tell him I was a photographer and he didn't have to worry about that, but I just said of course and bit my lip.
We did leave behind the mountains and traded them for some beautiful farm country; reminded me a lot of Pennsylvania!
We settled into our hotel in Grand Prairie and made popcorn and did some laundry. Not much exciting to report. I'm super tired since I drove the whole day, so I'm off to bed! Tomorrow we plan to camp in Jasper National Park....super excited about that!
Gnight!
