Alaska King Crab!!!
that is only one of the legs. usually in singapore we throw away the legs because there isn't any flesh in it but this leg, it feeds both of us! it's about half an arm length.
im selling the above glass bottle for anyone that is intrested. it contained Alaska's natural mineral: GOLD. it says 24k gold.

it's snowing. ignore what im doing by the side of the road on the picture above.
snowing!
snowing. from Anchorage to Whitehorse is tough. it's late in the season. 1st, we got rain, that soak us wet at a temperature of 4degress celcius with cold wind. then it snowed. the snow was abit dry, thats good but i have to use my glove to sweep away the snow on my visor, then it became icewater on my glove. the snow landed on our boots, then it became icewater. our feet and hands feels like being soak in a tub of icewater for 2hours.
cheap rain gear we bought. it was torn due to the wind.
a night after we woke up.
about 150km to whitehorse, thats where our pitstop is, Hope Too's rear bearing broke into bits. i can't take out the bearing with proper tools and it was very cold at the road. a kind man stopped his RV and offered us hot drinks and food meanwhile the Canadian policeman came with a trailer to tow Hope Too to the nearest workshop. i was lucky because the workshop had the same size of bearing and he charged me with a proper fee. we are heading south now.
