Bigger is Better!--
Sunday, September 06, 2009
I had read about Alaska's giant vegetable contest, and I was really excited to finally see the giants in person. These particular ones are a pumpkin (400lbs) and a cabbage (100lbs). We also saw a 13lb mushroom, 110lb watermelon, and 22lb zucchini. Alaska has 24-hour sun in the summer, so their vegetables get HUGE!---
We're now in Sitka, a little island town on the Alaska panhandle. The only way to get here is by plane or boat, so we took the ferry into town -- fun!

I (heart) couch surfing too. You get to meet a lot of great people! The meatloaf and plane ride sound awesome...(jealous).
Looks like you two are really enjoying the trip. When are you coming home?!? :-)
