Today we have only one thing planned a successful cruise to Gull Island to see the puffins
After Nome it is time for Kenai Peninsula for which we have to fly into Anchorage and then drive to Homer on the very scenic Sterling highway
Teller Road is the last major road out of Nome for us but due to bad weather the trip is cut short, at least the wildlife sightings were spectacular
Council Road is the second road out of Nome that we take with more historical sights and is the only one following the ocean for a while before turning inland into the mountains
Kougarok Road is one of the three roads starting out of Nome and we drive it almost full length enjoying the great views and excellent wildlife sightings
We start our trip to Alaska with an unorthodox location, Nome, in the far west of the state accesible only by plane
