Vacation with my mom and aunt Elaine.

6-20 thru 6-26

Met them in Anchorage.

Drove to Seward.

Went to Alaska SeaLife Center ( Rehab center for abandoned and injured critters )

Ididaride Sled Dog Tours- rode in a sled (actually wheeled cart) for 2 miles pulled by 13 dogs, visited their kennels and played with little puppies.

Wildlife and Glacier Tour- definitely the highlight of the trip. Saw 8 humpback whales, Dall's porpoise (look like little killer whales), sea otters, sea lions, harbor seals, lots of birds!

Stopped by the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center.

Then they came out to McGrath with me for a couple of days.

We looked all over town for moose and never saw any. We did see a porcupine and a weasel.

This picture was taken on the drive down to Seward. It is as cold as it looks!

It was a terrible week as far as the weather goes, but we still had fun. Temps stayed in the 40's and rained everyday but the day they left-of course. We even built a fire in the wood stove!
