Day 15: Menana(?) to Fairbanks

Last night I had a good sleep. Probably the best one I have had in this week. But I find my right ankle dosen’t feel right. I have been intentionally using my right leg to peddle hard to prevent from using my uncomfortable left leg in resent two days. Now what I have been worried happened. Now still 40km from Fairbanks. It would not be a problem if I peddle slowly and easily.

 

Fairbanks is right over there！

I got to Duncan’s home at 3 pm. He had been waiting for me. This time is different from last two times. They are 5 people family with dog, cats, ducks…etc. This is new to me. Duncan is a pilot himself and has 3 excellent children (NASA scientist, Hokey player…).

I had a dinner with Duncan’s family. I tried to be polite so I did not have much (about 1.5 times more than others had though), and ended up getting hungry at 8 pm. I guess I should not try to be polite; otherwise I probably will get myself into malnutrition trouble again.
