Cold and barren? Guess again .

by stopatnothin - last update: Apr 30, 2005

Boy was I wrong!

having a balcony gets you great views
I used to think , why Alaska? Now I ask , why not Alaska? Before I became a travel counselor I used to firmly believe that Alaska was cold and barren and was for Eskimo's only ! Boy was I wrong .
Alaska is filled with many natural wonders and beauties and as I have experienced , can be as warm as 75 degrees ( with about 18 hours of daylight in July - it can't be too cold ) .
Alaska was never a must in my travel book and now it is logged as a destination I would most definately visit again .

Pros:"It's natural beauty is amazing to witness."
Cons:"You never really know how to pack. It rains quite a bit here in the summer."
In A Nutshell:"Alaska is not a place for "old people", if you enjoy nature - you will enjoy Alaska."
