I moved to Anchorage Alaska 34 years ago from Los Angeles California. Talk about culture shock! But I will never live anywhere else. The beauty up here is just breathtaking, and it still awes me every day. Everyone should visit Alaska at least once in their lifetime

So quick thing about about the Bear spray that plastic cap on top is a reusable safety and you should spray at least once in a quick iteration to make sure the can is functional also it is the best practice do spray and yell and when they turn around and leave stop spraying there might be more than one beer and the same bear might take a hit stagger back and then walk forward again I need a second reminder.😅

Did an Alaska cruise in June. The cruise actually started in Seward to Vancouver. Many ports. We had an extension at the beginning in Anchorage and at the end rode the Rocky Mountaineer from Vancouver to Banff. Was a great trip.

@lindalbarchman83942 жыл бұрын
@@Livingtheglobe we were on Viking and only did included excursions at every port. All were worth it. We are not very adventurous at our ages of 66 and 76 due to some walking issues. One excursion at the end of our trip was to a park near Banff where we did walk on a Glacier. That was part of our Rocky Mountaineer Railroad extension. Was worth every penny we paid. The trip had been canceled in 2021. You should take a trip on the Rocky Mountaineer Railroad in Canada. Check it out.

It is a $5 free but not inforced, if you get a tour bus for transportation, it is included. Yes, the crab place is at the port

The local bus will also drop you off about a mile away from the Park if you want a free option.

I had a cannery diorama there on exhibit at the Alaska State museum. It was called the Mug-up exhibit. The life and times of a cannery worker at NN cannery of South Naknek.They had all nationalities from all over the world as cannery workers. My Diorama was on a 5 ft x 5 ft space. 54 buildings drom the dock to shops warehouses, messhall, laundry, bunk houses. Everything that entailed a working cannery.
