433 Eagle St. Anchorage, Alaska, United States, 99501, 907-272-9619
... would be a park lodge or visitors center. What a mixed bag we Alaskans are. <br><br>Since this is my first blog, I thought it best to start at home. I think world travelers want to come here. They just have to put with AK's eccentricities. Half the people in the state live within the city limits of Anchorage. In the book "Coming into the Country" John McPhee, wrote something like...Anchorage is not a great town, but it has the best out-of-town any town ever had. It's ten ...
Anchorage, Alaska, United States dellaroseFinally, after two days' time-zone adjustment, we left SF airport before 8 p.m.<br>The flight was longer than expected, but the sight was interesting. Sun hovered above the cloud.<br>I could see small viliages amid mountains. A mid-age couple sat next to me. They're planning their trip ...
Anchorage, Alaska, United States mrduby... exactly 12 midnight . . .and is a decent representation of how light it is at midnight. After that I drove out to the point past the airport (to cloudy for a decent photo in that direction). And realized on the drive back home that the city street lights come on about 12:15 am.<br><br> <br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br ><br><br>Jackie<br><br><br>Hope you enjoyed . . .<br><br><br><br>Jackie Whedbee
Anchorage, Alaska, United States jackies-world... were more dominant than the males (that's what I'm talking about). We then took off to see a Ulu Factory. A ulu is a type of knife the Alaskan's use a lot for chopping and fileting their fish. Afterwards we took off for a salmon run, which proved very disappointing. The only salmon there were a few dead ones, and a lot of small black fish swimming in the shallow waters. After our fish viewing, we decided to try the Anchorage ...
Anchorage, Alaska, United States cincy... set in Alaska: '30 Days of Night', which is set in the far north of Alaska in Barrow, during winter when the sun doesn't rise, and 'Insomnia', which is set in the far west of Alaska, during summer when the sun never sets. Don't bother with '30 Days of Night'. The other film is definitely worth a look. The following day, our last in Seward, it's raining again, which is a problem. We have to check out of our motel at 11 am, but our train doesn't leave for Anchorage until 6 pm. This is a ...
Anchorage, Alaska, United States benleah... Lance is quite a guy. Weather here is much like what we are having at home in Michigan. Today I had an early morning meeting and walked outside to find three inches of fluffy white snow decorating my windshield. Just like at home it had to be brushed off the car before I could head to work. Halibut fishing season started last Saturday. I'm feeling a little tired out and uninspired. Taking cough meds but still sounding like a truck driver! Goes over big here in Alaska. Miss all of you!
Anchorage, Alaska, United States kitchenshrinkOn our last day, back in Anchorage, we took a tour around the city,<br>rented a car and drove along the seward scenic hwy, visiting the Alaska<br>Wildlife Conservation Center. This is a wildlife refuge for the animals<br>native to alaska that for one reason or another cannot be returned to<br>the wild, so they make this their home. I have to say this ...
Anchorage, Alaska, United States gnatalia... sad. Alaska has been a great adventure for both of us. We've had to explore, learn and adapt to a new environment. We've seen amazing sunsets, snowfalls, and wildlife. Being here has helped us grow as individuals and as a couple. It will be a bittersweet departure.
Eagle River, Alaska, United States dennyanderin... lunch. Not too bad...that great smell before turned out to be deep dish personal pepperoni pizzas! Greasy food always smells amazing! =) It wasn't too bad either. We also got a bag of sliced apples but I didn't really like mine... Eh...can't enjoy everything, right? =) So I guess theres about two more hours to go. I feel for everyone on tour coming from Australia and New Zealand! Ouch! Hopefully they did more than just this tour! =) 4pm (Alaska time!): I ...
Anchorage, Alaska, United States jlovely... She loves me like a mother should like a daughter, and I love her the same way. But I still know that my real mom is in my heart somewhere.<br>I found this out a few days ago, actually. I always thought my step-mom was my real mom until I asked on my 15th birthday.<br><br>Write again tomorrow.<br><br>Lovegossip909<br>
