August 20, 2017 Fairbanks AK

Last time we visited Fairbanks we were very impressed with the botanical gardens so we decided to go again.  The most spectacular thing are the giant cabbages that Alaska is famous for.  I think the picture tells the story pretty well.

After the botanical gardens we headed over to the visitors center in Fairbanks.  On this trip we have been very impressed with the network of visitors centers along the Alaska and the other highways.  The Fairbanks one is really nice with the feel of both a visitors center and a museum.  It also features outstanding internet, as all of them do, making them a hub for visitors in RV’s looking for free internet.

We ended the day with another visit to Fred Meyer to get some more food and supplies.  Ton also was looking for some more long pants as it is colder here than she expected.
