Alaska is still quite a wilderness, for sure. On the way from the airport, we saw a moose, and I got a photo from the car window. My friend Louise had seen her only twice before, so this was a treat. Isn't she sweet?
I was even greeted by this big fellow at the airport, although you don't see him as far south as I am in Alaska.

The next day Louise and I drove to the Forest Fair at Girdwood.

After a drive with non-stop lovely views, we wandered among the trees along with lots of hippyish folk.

The next day we were off to see Prince William Sound. I'll post those amazing photos tomorrow!
