ALASKA!!!!

Okay, okay....I have been holding out on the Alaska pictures (according to Isaac). For those of you that don't know, we just returned from a cruise to Alaska and had the greatest time. It was an unforgettable experience. We saw some of the most beautiful views and met some great people. Here are some of our photos:


We went on a little run in Ketchikan and spotted this Kodak moment.


Shopping in Ketchikan.


We rode in a seaplane over the Misty Fjords. It was spectacular. Here are some views from the plane.















Scott taking some video on the cruise ship.


This was on our whale watching trip.


There is the tail of a humpback whale! Only after several dozen tries to catch it on camera.


Scott in Juneau. All of the cities were built up the hillside from the ocean.


Back on the cruise ship.


This is a lighthouse that Scott took about a dozen pictures of.


In Victoria, B.C. It is such a quaint, beautiful city.


Let me explain...this was a street performer who is, yes, juggling swords over two people (from the audience, mind you) and over the torch. Scott was astounded at the lighthearted way the street performer accepted liability. That was the lawyer in him (I guess he can't leave it at home even on vacation:)).


Pike's Place in Seattle.

So, we had a fabulous time, but were definitely ready to get home and hug our babies.

I'm so freakin' jealous of the SEA PLANE! I've always wanted to ride in one.

We're thinking about doing an Alaska cruise next August- what do you suggest?


(PS thanks for updating your blog- it's been a while! I thought you were just a blog tease.)
