WRANGELL, ALASKA, USA
We decided to explore the sleepy town of Wrangell, Alaska by E Bikes. I have ridden e-bikes before and these were the smoothest ride I have had to date, perhaps due to the nice wide tires. Wrangell's population is barely 2,000. The rental shop gave us a map and some suggestions for rides. First stop was Petroglyph Beach.
Then we headed through town, down along the coastline to the far end of town and hiked into Rainbow Falls. It was a sleepy little town, very picturesque. There was a National Geographic ship also tendered in Port and they had pretty much booked up all the local excursions in advance. We were happy with our peaceful relaxing day, just biking around for a couple of hours.
After dinner things got a little more lively as Brett and Rich along with Bosco all got picked for acting roles in resident Viv's, New Zealand version of a somewhat twisted Little Red Riding Hood tale. Brett played a dog, Rich was bad guy #2, Randy Andy and Bosco was the hero, lumberjack Jay Gay. Sheri and I just enjoyed sitting back and watching the action unfold!
