Alaska

Slept in this state

Flew in from Seattle

Cruise to Alaska - Princess Cruise - Coral Princess

Alaska rail to Denali National Park was vert scenic.  Enjoyed the glass cars.

Husky Homestead tour with Jeff King - I did not like.  It seemed cruel to the dogs


In Denali - Wilderness Tour  on a motor-bus up mountains.  It started snowing and they had to turn back before we got to the end. We saw some bears.  Beautiful country.  Never saw the top of Denali

Denali Princess Lodge in National Park Lodge was absolutely beautiful and the town was cute.

Island Windgs Air Service - Flew over alaska. Land near water and saw bears.

Cruise was wonderful
Great food
Naturalist
College Fjord, scenic cruise.
Glacier Bay - Calving of the large glaciers.
Wildlife on floating glaciers

Skagway ALaska - Glacier Discovery by Helicopter

Juneau Alaska - Rainforest Canopy and Zip Line

Ketchikan Alaska - Salmon fishery;  Live salmon are gigantic and seeing ones that died after their long journey home was sobering.

We went home via Vancouver British Columbia
