I did, though not until I woke up at 2:30pm.

RSH is a brief stop on the ANI-KLG leg. We'll probably be able to jump out of the plane and get eaten by mosquitos but won't be able to wander into town for a leisurely lunch.

Not 100% sure of my plans tomorrow--might be available at 6:30 or might not be available until more like 7:30. I should be in either way, though.

Can't stay TOO late, though--we have to fly out on Monday morning at the bright'n'early hour of 10am!

(Remember the good old days when almost every flight to S.E. Asia or Europe one had to refuel in ANC? Yes, on my very first long journey to North America, Canada, to be exact, we had to refuel in DXB and ANC. That was in 1974 )

Thinking 6:30 is doable.

Might not be flying out tomorrow, after all--weather is looking grimmer than we'd hoped. But might try to go anyway, since the alternative is getting pretty late in the season. Maybe we should bring the tent just in case.

Well, we were, but I think you disappeared off the radar!

Catch you next time, I guess. Hope you had fun!
