July 24

We drove to Wasilla (Sarah Palin's hometown) from Palmer this morning and toured the headquarters for the Iditarod (dog sled race held each March) and watched a movie - very interesting!Entrance to the Iditarod headquartersSome of the huskies waiting outside the headquarters building to give rides on a dogsled (actually a makeshift wagon) Arrived in Talkeetna - neat little town and this was the sign to greet us as we walked to the "historic" part!One of the cute shops in downtown Talkeetna
Many tour buses bring tourists here

Enjoyed our time here - very quaint little town and of course, ate well....lunch at "Mountain High Pizza"; drinks and appetizer at "The Twisted Creek" and then chowder and dessert at "The Wildflower Cafe" - everything was wonderful!!!
