Daily Narrative  Awoken by the brisk temperature, coupled with Brian's clever planning in packing the sleeping bags deep in a duffel bag on the roof rack, our intrepid couple rises promptly at 7:00am.  The morning drive weaved through the swampy muskeg between Beaver Creek and Burwash landing, and then along the shores of Kluane Lake.  By noon we were in Haines Junction marveling at the town centerpiece, which Theresa dubbed "the cupcake".  After a popsicle stop, we were off to Whitehorse.  In Whitehorse we did a little shopping at the "Real Canadian Superstore" and beat a hasty retreat.  On the way out of town, while gassing the bus, Theresa forbade Brian an afternoon snack at KFC, thus guaranteeing there will be no stops at A&W for the entire trip.  On the way to Watson Lake for the night, we stopped to top off the tank in Teslin.  If you look just outside of the picture of Theresa and the moose below, you can see our gas cap on the pump.  Two hours later we returned to pick it up.  Brian, determined not to loose the day's potential, insisted on driving on to Watson Lake anyway.  We arrived at Watson Lake Yukon Government Campground at about 11:00pm.  Brian promises not to drive so late in the days to come.
