Anchorage Museums

The power in Anchorage went off at about 10.00 am today apparently due to the strong winds. We decided to head for the shopping mall because Greg said they would have their own generator.

It was freezing outside, I am sure the wind came directly from the South Pole and with the rain all I can say is brrrrrrrrrr.  I had on a beanie but my face got so cold it felt like it was burning so I had to wrap my scarf around  to keep the wind at bay.

Took ourselves to the downtown museum after the mall (power had come back on by this stage), it was so nice and warm in the museum but it took about 2 hours for me to "thaw" out.

On the way back to the hotel we called into a police museum, it is done really well. They had police paraphanelia from other countries, there was a NSW police cap and the sign was spelt New South Whales.
