Below: Alex Jones, the grandson of the two RV Gypsies likes Denny's so a visit to Denny's was a must, especially since this particular Denny's is the Northernmost Denny's in the World. The food was OK on this visit here. But.............

a crying faceThe two RV Gypsies stopped at this same Denny's in 2016 and it was under different management and workers. The food was awful - actually beyond awful. Even the coffee was cold, as was the soup. Service was slower than slow can be, and the restrooms were filthy as could be. Nobody cared, not even the manager when the two RV Gypsies complained. The manager said he was forced to hire foreigners who barely spoke English and they do not care how they do or do not do their jobs. SAY WHAT??????? What is happening to America?????

Below: The two RV Gypsies and their family traveled throughout Alaska in the motorhome on a rainy day. All too often they had to follow a pilot car through construction areas. The same occurred in 2016.

Below: Renee Duquette was bored on the ride in the RV, so she turned on the TV. She is not a fan of RVs. She is more of a car and hotel person. Her attitude shows in the photo below.
