Haines Junction


There is not much to Haines Junction.  Besides a large intersection, there are a few buildings, a gas station, and not much more.  But, Chris and Katie found a bakery that made Danishes.  Unbelievably delicious danishes.  So when we arrived later, Chris and Di walked down to purchase some for us.  Di came back with not only an almond danish, but also a gingersnap cookie, a blueberry scone, and a cinnamon bun.  I attest to the fact that the Danish was out of this world.


The other source of Haines Junction's fame is this 360 degree sculpture that sits at the intersection.  The animals and people on it are life-sized.  Although it is rather tacky, it is certainly unique - I can't imagine there is another one like it in the world!
