Had a great time in Alaska and the shop owners were able to ship delicate items I couldn’t carry with me safely on my plane back home!

My 13 and 10 year old kids loved it. They each got a small container with gold flakes and they enjoyed the experience of leaning to pan that last about 1 hour. Just a cool vibe and the Doctor was super authentic
