The Preparation: Apparently, makeup is essential


July 29/2010: Two days to go before the trip and somehow the stuff Maria plans to take to Alaska has grown by at least a third. And yet it all seems essential. Mascara and lipstick are essential right?

You look like you're ready for an amazing trip! Maria asked me to report on Prince Rupert once I'd been through - you may already have seen this, but it's at: http://rocketrobin.tumblr.com/post/839764268/prince-rupert with pix at http://rocketrobin.tumblr.com/post/839907315/museum-of-northern-british-columbia and http://rocketrobin.tumblr.com/post/840005659/a-day-in-prince-rupert

Wow, you guys have a reporter. I'm sensing you're part of the west-coast liberal elite.

Delooper: Ha ha ha! It's more like one of us knows a whole whack of reporters.

If you decide to leave late I'm having some people over at my place on Sunday.

Don't pack too much for your trip! Keep relaxed. You'll experience gravel. The highways in Alaska and the Yukon are always getting resurfaced, and that means stretches of 10km of gravel. :(

But you'll come to find it familiar after a while.
