Say What?!? Alaska!!

Here it is - Alaska!  I bet it's been so long you've forgotten that we went.  It seems like a lifetime ago.  I would love to report back all the funny stories and crazy things that went on with two littles but honestly, I no longer remember!  And that could be true even if it happened yesterday.  I do recall the night before we left our plane reservations got changed.  Then our hotel reservations got cancelled.  And then the airline lost the Prince's car seat.  Why do they always lose the one thing you can't do without?  It's like the baggage handlers have a game of 'what will they do when ABC (insert object of choice) winds up in Indianapolis?'.  Very funny wise guys, very funny.  But all went well once we got in to the rented car with the borrowed car seat and were on our way!  Loved Juneau.  LOVED.  Can't wait to go back.

Lots of looking at creatures - wasn't much of a fan of the bear.

How most of my photos I tried to take ended up looking like.

Best form of entertainment ever for the Monkey.  We rode this thing for a day and a half!  She loved it.  Too bad we didn't take advantage of the day it was free as part of the conference.  Noooo, we had to ride it a million times the day we had to pay for it.

Went on a whale watching excursion.  Tons of whales out.  We've gotten really lucky every time we've gone whale watching.  Apparently I have the whale karma (it's all me, everyone knows that).

 Hey!  The Prince was with us!

 

Tried taking a family photo at Denali...didn't really work but it's one of the few we have.  Sold!

And finally the plane rides.  Gotta say, the little Prince has done really well so far.  Aannnnd...way to make sure that never happens again mom!  I love the pic of them sitting together crammed between the two of us.  Family's gotta love!

 And finally, I leave you with some Alaskan humor.  Those darn puffins!

PS...exciting news...I should be getting a new phone this week so I can go back to snapping pictures again!  YAY!!
