A long day out to Whittier Alaska

                                                 Trying a new chrome helmet
 Just before our first ride out to a fishing town called Whittier, it has the second longest tunnel in the USA. 2.5 miles, Its a one way tunnel which is shared with trains and cars alike. we simply rode between the tracks. I guess the USA dosen't do tunnels.
 Nice sign, three people died today on this road. Coming back from Whittier a car overtook on a blind bend an hit a people carrier killing three and injuring another twelve people, we were stuck in the road block for 7 hours.
 

                                                     A gift shop in Whittier.
We got talking to a biker in the road block and he told us of this famous restaurant in the area, called Double Muskies, you can't booked so we arrived early. The doors opened at 5pm by 5.30 the place was full. The food and service was fantastic.
