4/6/99wonjucity



(note tuesday, 4/27) newsflash: wow! :) Mariko finally made it to the top of Chiak Mountain on Sunday, April 25, 1999. I went along too. I got up at 5am that morning. I was going to go on my own, but Mariko said she wanted to really go this time. We caught the #41 bus to Chiak at 7am. We spent the entire day there leaving at 8pm and getting home at 9pm. Unfortunately, we didn't bring the camera. So, Mariko has only her memories and still aching feet to treasure the moment.
