Wow! My family and I just got back from a cruise to Alaska. We cruised up the inside passage from Vancouver, BC to Whittier. On the way we saw Humpback whales, Sea Otters, Elephant seals, Harbor Seals, Orca Whales, glaciers, mountains, rain, and amazing landscapes.

We then took a scenic train to Denali National Park. What an incredible place! We saw

Arctic ground squirrels, Snowshoe Hairs, Red foxes, Carabou, Mouse, Grizzly Bears, mountains, broad glacial valleys, rain, terrifying 1,000 foot drop-offs on the sides of winding dirt roads, and beautiful landscapes. We stayed at a resort within view for Mt. McKinley (called Denali by the natives), but it was covered with clouds the whole time.

We arrived back about 2 am. but our bodies were still on Alaska time, so it seemed like 11 am. Seeing night almost seemed strange since we almost never saw the 4 hours of night they had up there. Hot and muggy 90 degrees in Joplin is a stark contrast to the spring-like 50 degrees in Alaska.
