Whitehorse - Yukon Trip Part 4

Whitehorse was surprisingly warm. Lindsey, my sister, had flowers planted and the lawn was so green and thick, I wondered if it was real! One day she connected a kid's water swisher to the garden hose and we had lots of fun with Ty, watching him run through the spray and trying to get all of us wet.

We went on a walking tour downtown with a guide who showed us around many historic buildings and talked about the gold rush days over a hundred years ago. The most interesting of the historical sites was the "Klondike," a paddle-wheeler which, for many years, steamed up and down the Klodike river, carrying supplies and people between Whitehorse and Dawson city.
