Please PM me if you need my address or instructions to the BBQ tomorrow. I think most of you have been here before. The organizers can help also.

Downtown Anchorage Live after 5
Had a reindeer burger and waiting for my catfish burger.

Interesting event with live music.

Many thanks to beckoa for a fantastic Do! I am most heartbroken to have leave early and miss BOB W's BBQ, but I had a fantastic time and can't wait for the next AK Do! Hope everyone enjoys the rest of their stay!!

Someone over in the AS forum posted a neat video that I think captures the Barrow experience quite nicely:

Well worth watching, whether you came to BRW or not.

BTW, @GRALISTAIR...how was your BRW experience today?

Good thanks. Pretty damned cold with that biting wind coming off the Arctic Ocean. I walked everywhere and made the local festival and dipped my toe in the ocean from the beach. Departures - if you can call it that- was very cramped but glad I went. Got the red eye back from ANC and now in the Skyclub in SLC
