Our Alaska Trip - Sep 2008

Our Trip to Alaska to check out the potential Vice President's state. It was an amazing place. I fell in love with hiking and the nature is just beautiful. Don't take a cruise....visit this place and hike around. It is breath taking. We had an amazing time, especially meeting Jana's friends, Edko, Zuzka, Edko's brother Robert and Zuzka #2.

They say it is very rare to see a wolf. Not only did we get lucky with this one, but it came really close and crossed the road in front of us.

Black Bear. They are smaller than Brown bears, but this one looked pretty big. It was trying to sleep as we came by. I wanted to get off the bus and go hike up to it, but my better half, Jana, stopped me.

This moose came by our bus. These things are huge and very very territorial.
