We had a new driver and bus today as we headed off to the Kenai Peninsula near Seward.
The shadow of our bus as we cross over a long bridge.
The majestic Chugach Mountains are a site to see.
The Alaska Veterans Memorial. 
The Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race Headquarters, Wasilla, Alaska. The Iditarod Trail, now a National Historic Trail, has its beginning as a mail and supply route from the coastal towns of Seward and Knik to the interior mining camps. The Iditarod Slid Dog Race is a commemoration of those yesterdays, a not-so-distant past that Alaskans honor and are proud of. On the first Saturday in March, mushers line out their dog teams in downtown Anchorage for their turn to start the Last Great Race on Earth, the Iditarod.
Bronzed sled dogs.
Beautiful bronze art work.
We stopped at Alaska Wild Berry Products restaurant for lunch.
A chocolate lovers dream. 
I wanted to jump in and swim in the chocolate. There are 3,400 pounds of chocolate in this fountain.
I have never seen so much chocolate.
Each block weighs 10 pounds. 
After eating a delicious lunch and some chocolate candy I had to rest between my new friends. I would be that big if I kept eating chocolate.
We passed by Cook Inlet and headed to Seward where we spent the night in the Windsong Lodge. Seward in 126 miles east of Anchorage.
