Thanks for posting your thoughts.
I will be in Alaska in a few days for a CRUISE, (rush little time etc). One of my goals for going this way was to get an introduction for what I want to see later on the REAL next trip that will definitely include Denali and the railroad trip you mentioned.
Next time I plan to stay awhile, probably the whole summer.
We will be in Alaska in August as our family is taking a 10-day cruise (Princess). I can’t wait to see Glacier Bay - and I want to see at least one BEAR and at least one MOOSE!
