May 5thI rolled over to turn off my alarm, put my feet on the ground, stood out of bed and doubled over as reality kicked me in the stomach. I quickly assessed what I had gotten myself into – “This is it, I’m really going to do this.” My body was in the moment, it knew what was going on – I had purchased my ticket, made all the phone calls, but my brain was lagging behind, still in disbelief.
My bother drove me to the airport. I had three flights to take before reaching my final destination; SFO to Seattle, to Anchorage, to Kodiak. And I wish I had more to say about it… It was a smooth trip, everything went great, and I met some very interesting people.
So far Alaska lives up to everything I’ve heard about it. I was eating dinner in a small Chinese restaurant in downtown Kodiak while watching Bald Eagles fly by.
