Getting Started

To begin our exploration of Alaska, our tour guide (a retired teacher like my parents!) picked us up in a passenger van which we used for the week. 

That day, we had several stops and went on a Native Alaskan cultural tour.  Here we are below standing between the jawbones of a whale. 

We stayed a couple of nights in these cabins which we all enjoyed.  Jon went for an evening walk the first evening and encountered a moose!  Welcome to Alaska!
