Beware Alaska Ferry.

After two trips to Alaska and getting ready to head back in a few days, I have certainly learned that a strict schedule simply does not work. S**t happens and it is so much more enjoyable to make decisions on the fly. That it probably the best thing about having a traveling bedroom, bathroom and kitchen, you do not have to have motel reservations. That is especially true on the AK trip where many times you can simply pull off the road and eat or sleep. We have twice taken the ferry and made our reservations the day prior. I realize this might not work when taking a ferry that only runs once a week. My advice for everyone in an RV is the just have a vague plan and then see what the road conditions and weather are like as you make your way. With the fire situation, that is what we are planning to do.
