Day 8 and on

Trip is wrapping up and I get pneumonia

Upon our return to Anchorage in preparation to leave I became increasingly sicker and sicker. To make sure I was OK to fly I went to the emergancy room where I was told I had pneumonia. After I the news it was back to the B&B to rest up to fly home. Since the B&B we were in was full that night were recommended to go to another. We went from Great GREATEST. What a wonderful place in an Anchorage neighborhood. House of Jade. The best B&B food of the trip.

After two days of bed rest it was time to attempt the long flight home - leaving Alaska at 9PM EST and arriving Ft. Myers at 12:30pm EST. Lest one and twp went fine and legs three was downhill. After taking off I broke into the sweats and coughing nonstop.

Couple of thoughts on long distance trips. Only go with as a best friends like I did. They will be there for you and not compllaining on how you are ruining their time.

Drop 25lbs. Those seats are are small enough without the4 extra luggage.

By the way- that best friend I mentioned. He jumped ship on the last leg of the flight for a $500 travel voucher (I would have done the same)

When fully recoved I'll finishing uploading the photos

Rating of Alaska as a vacation spot. A+
