Fairbanks - Day One

6/24/13

Began our tour of Fairbanks today with a trip to the University of Alaska Fairbanks campus overlooking the city.  Beautiful museum of Alaskan culture, art galleries, and botanical gardens were enjoyed today under a high temperature of 92 degrees eclipsing a record of 91 for this date here.  Alaskans love the 20 hours of sunshine now but are complaining about the heat.


We enjoyed a late lunch today at the Cookie Jar.  This restaurant was featured on Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives TV a while back.  We made some arrangements for our kids to travel on the Alaskan Railroad in a few weeks and did some grocery shopping.
