Got these chips from Josh too long ago and have been remiss at posting pictures, so decided to take these along on an Alaska cruise with my wife, daughter and granddaughter.
If you haven't been you should go... it's everything people say it is.... at least in the summer... bearing in mind we didn't get too far inland
First stop -- Anchorage, staying at the Captain Cook Hotel
In Anchorage they claim to have the best pizza in Alaska -- the Moose's Tooth Pizzeria.. it was some of the best I've ever had... something about the crust
The plates are fun too....
From Anchorage we took a 4-hour train ride to Talkeetna which is famous for its Moose Dropping Festival.
The event was named after a lottery where participants bet on numbered, varnished pieces of moose feces, dropped from a helicopter onto a target.(Wikipeida)
Moose droppings are about the size of a walnut
Talkeetna has two roads and less than 1000 full-time inhabitants. It also has a great lodge
From Talkeetna it was off to Denali (formerly Mt. Wilson) state park, where we enjoyed the view, the wildlife and an ATV adventure
Then on to the Alyeska ski resort.
We ended the land portion of our adventure in Seward where we visited the Aquatic Center
First stop on the cruise was Skagway where we took a successful whale-watching boat tour. We saw a couple of hump-back whales feeding and flipping their tails.
Sealions and eagles to boot.
After Skagway we docked in Juneau and ate dinner at the famous Red Dog Saloon.. .right out of the gold rush era with swinging doors, sawdust on the floor and live entertainment
Nest stop Ketchikan where we flew in a small plane over Glacier Bay... .oops forgot the chips in this one
Finally disembarked in Vancouver and flew home the next day
Hope to take these on more adventures. Hope you enjoyed the pics
