For Example:

Now fasten seat belts please and settle back with ease and get ready for your flight

No smoking friends, 'til takeoff ends

Just watch the message light

Listen for locations of the exit stations

There are seven by actual tally

There's a cabin door both aft and fore

And another in the galley

Now if you'll raise your sight-there's a reading light And air vents in each aisle

Or you can button press for the Stewardess

For service with a smile.

and more of the same.

Ironically they did serve dinner after all and so I had it on top of Marilyn's sandwich. This was a gastronomically inauspicious beginning and made a good contribution to the 7 lbs. I gained on the trip.

We arrived in Anchorage 9:30 their time but it was 11:30 by getting up time in S.F. so I was really ready for the hay upon arrival at the hotel but had to take time to put up my hair in curlers as I had to keep the set I'd gotten in S.F. for the next two weeks. This is fun the first couple of times but soon becomes just a woman's chore to be done. Sunday we "did" Anchorage and saw the results of the 1966 earthquake and they were considerable. Both there and elsewhere around S.E. Alaska it certainly left its mark in cave-ins, landslides, lateral and vertical displacements, etc. In the afternoon we toured out to Portage Glacier and took a cold and drizzly ride up a ski lift At Mt. Alyeska. It was foggy and damp but it certainly would have been beautiful in the sunlight.

Next day we flew to Nome. We stopped only long enough there to go into the terminal and pick up a Parka. Since I was wearing a red capri suit, (sorry Susanna but capris or slacks are highly appreciated up there so I wore them most of the time - see pictures) I naturally picked out a red parka and it made a very snappy looking outfit and I drew several compliments. We got back on the plane and flew another 250 miles or so further north to the Eskimo town of Kotzebue above the Arctic Circle.
