Okay. It's been forever since we got back from Alaska, but I still haven't gotten many pictures up. Since part of that is because I've got a TON of pictures and couldn't ever put all of them up, I've decided to just give you a few of them that I like.
(Oh, if you want to catch up on earlier posts from Alaska, you can find a
food post, here; and some
only-in-Alaska signage, here.)

The 4th Avenue Theater (closed, unfortunately) in Anchorage. |
|
The Anchorage Art Museum was really cool - complete with a whole section coordinated through the Smithsonian. But we saw this "rehearsal" one evening on our walk past it. *So* cool. |
|
On our way to see a glacier on the Kenai Peninsula (below), we passed this. |
|
I wish the color showed up better on this. The "glacier blue" that I'd always heard about came to (very cold) life in front of us. |
|
A chunk of glacial ice (not from the one, above, but from a land-locked glacier which was dropping bits of itself into a stream. At the urging of our tour guide, I tasted it. It was... cold... and - for lack of a better term - "pure" tasting. |
|
We found these in an outfitter outside of Denali National Park. We did *not* try them, even though they made me laugh. |
|
We saw the full rainbow on our drive across the Kenai Peninsula. It was one of those kind of amazing drive days (Christopher drove for *hours* as we covered lots of miles), but the scenery was worth it. (This is also the trip which landed us at the amazing cafe in Old Town Seward.)
