From the USA-Canada border to the Canada-USA border

Ah the beautiful days, still a divine day... I saw a bald eagle in the USA, a black bear and waterfalls with an impressing flow in Canada. Between the two sights I crossed the border without control in the USA and with a stamp and some questions justifying of the customs officer's function in Canada. This day was in spite of very gloomy, covered weather, snow, cold, a pass at approximately 1100 meters high and landscapes announcing the far north with scattered trees. For pictures in the USA to see the travelog of the USA.

Sunday June 12 was sunny when I arrived in Haines Jct, crossroads between Alaska Hwy, Hwy # 1 & Haines Hwy, Hwy # 3. At the Visitor Centre I collected booklets and traversed the very interesting Interpretive Centre exhibiting the area with First Nations, Tutchone, and the arrival of settlers of which the very undertaking Jack Taylor. Then I strolled in the village looking for seldom sights.

I entered the catholic church, the religious office was in hand. At its end the faithful cordially accommodated me by offering me coffee and biscuits. Of course I was the object of many questions, the deacon and other people spoke French. It was a great moment of user-friendliness, I learned that at the airport a plane whose pilot is a Frenchwoman, flew over the glaciers.

I went there, a departure was announced with already three participants I were the fourth. Occupying the place of the co-pilot I had a superb sight on the glacier fields, alas the windscreen was tinted betraying the colour of pictures. For my feast day, St Guy, it were one day unforgettable as the previous year in Australia by flying over Uluru for my 70th birthday. I bivouacked in Haines Jct to publish my Internet site.
