Sometimes an adventure is just too good for words. That about sums up our recent 3-week excursion to Alaska. Planes, boats, and trains (and a rental car) combined to help us find what we were looking for in a genuine travel adventure. Then a road/train trip from Anchorage north to Denali and south to Seward and then Whitney, where we boarded our little DISCOVERY vessel to spend a week searching out wildlife, glacier, and wilderness in the silent bays of Prince William Sound.

One of our favorite little excursions from Anchorage was a day-trip to Seward on the Alaska Railway. It was a cool, rainy August day, but allows an easy way to see lots of country, landlocked glaciers, Turnagain Arm, etc. Each car had a college student providing information about what we were seeing. We really appreciated that.
We were locky enough to see a unique tidal wave on Turnagain that attracted surfers, kayakers, and two large separate pods of resident white Beluga whales. That was a great sight!
