We got some 2 cm of fresh snow in Nome last night. Father Ross was so nice to gave me a lift to the airport. Then there was the normal check-in for Alaska Airlines flight and a security control. Backpacker must be a rare bird in Nome because the security guys did not trusted their hi-tech screening machines and opened my pack taking the stuff out… Uuu… They did not teach them how to pack all the things back… I was not happy to see my baggage looking very bad at the destination… But nothing was stolen.
On the way from the plane there were nice views of the icy shores and snowy mountains. After 1,5 hours I landed in Anchorage. No snow on the streets and much warmer here… Yes, I have enough winter temperatures, I dream about the warm sun…
I have been before to the biggest town of Alaska, so now I plan to go south. Since the public transport is scare here I am looking for the inexpensive car rental…
