Woke to a mix of sun and clouds with
temps in the mid 50's. We renewed our site here at our campground a
mile south of Dawson City for tonight, then drove to the Dawson City
visitor center. We watched a film about the riverboats bringing
freight, miners and visitors from Whitehorse to Dawson City.
We walked around the tourist shopping
area of town where I got my watch battery replaced (gratis) and
stopped at the hardware store and grocery store. Stores here are
interesting as many serve as both tourist shop and general store for
the locals. The front of the store has tourist stuff, and as we move
to the back of the store, things migrate from stationary and
drugstore type goods to clothing and big boot section and then into
small appliances and then big appliances like stoves, refrigerators
and washing machines. All in the space of the CVS at home.....
Some Dawson City Street Scenes:
We returned to the RV, still parked in
the visitor center parking lot, and drove back to our campground to
take advantage of internet to update the blog that was about a week
behind. The blog takes a lot of computer time to organize photos
(electric required for the 'puter), then internet time to upload the
photos, text and organizing the blog photos into the text.
