Even though Anchorage is a big city there is still a lot of excursions that can be made in and near the city. Becky, Joey, and I made sure to do as many of them as possible!
There are tons of trailheads! This is the Crow Pass trailhead out of Girdwood. This trail is a 24-mile trail between Girdwood and Eagle River. Becky and I thought we could do this trail while she was here, but my cranky baby decided otherwise! (Plus, Michael wasn't going to be able to make it back from his Portland trip in time to go with us. Since we would have been hiking 24 miles in the wilderness of Alaska we wanted to have someone with survival skills along for the hike...). Oh well, maybe next year!
Becky tried out several different types of toilets while she was here! This one may look nice from the outside, but it's really just a big hole in the ground on the inside!
We ate Rudolph.
Joey got some major Aunt Becky lovin'!
She looked for some Belugas at Beluga Point. (No whales at this spot!)
She drank several different types of Alaska-brewed beer! She enjoyed most of these beers with some sort of seafood, mainly crab legs!
Since we never saw a wild moose, Becky decided to become a moose!
Becky also found her and Kenny their honeymoon outfits!
She decided to become friends with the bear statue, hoping that he would let the real bears in the woods know that we didn't want to meet them on our hikes!
She became sheriff for a minute!
Becky also got to touch some glacier ice smack dab in downtown!See, you don't have to go far from the city to still have an adventure! :)
