Into The Wild

This post is way overdue. Karin and I went to Alaska in September for 9 days. We flew into Anchorage, rented a car and drove down to Seward for a few days, then drove up to Denali National Park, then back down to Anchorage for the final 2 days. We had a good time for most of it, but it certainly wasn't the best timing for the trip...we found out a few weeks before leaving that Karin was pregnant...and during the trip she got to experience morning sickness every day. That, along with the rain in Seward and Anchorage and the fact that we both got sick for the last 2 days of the trip kind of put a damper on our trip. While is wasn't the greatest trip of our lives, we definitely enjoyed seeing Alaska and will be going back at some point. Here are a few shots from the trip (the colors were amazing!):

We lucked out and were able to see the top of Mt. Denali (Mt. McKinley to the lower 48...but in Alaska it is referred to as Mt. Denali), only about 20% of people who visit it get to see the top:This will probably be the last post before it is loaded with baby pictures, so I hope you enjoyed the landscapes!
