It always happens that when you live nearby a place, you don't go see it. I used to live in Washington State - and I could have easily travelled to Alaska from there - but no. Now I live in New York and this trip would take me so much longer.<br /><br />But - wow, your images make me want to book a flight.

Alaska is definitely on my list, both for skiing (best powder) and to visit the parks. I enjoy hiking on glaciers which I first experienced in Iceland and these pictures are just amazing.

One of the most beautiful places on earth with a feeling that can't be expressed through words or photographs. I always urge people to visit Alaska, but so few do and I suppose that leaves it a little less spoiled for the rest of us.

If you superimpose a map of Alaska including the Aleutian Chain over a map of the continental US, it stretches from California to the Carolinas. Amazing. Aren't those glaciers spectacular?

The only thing missing in your pictures that we had were huge icebergs! Glad you enjoyed the trip. We also drove from Southern Louisiana to Seattle and then on to Vancouver to board the ship and then drove back.

I haven't been, but it is on my list. <br /><br />I would also suggest Asia, especially Vietnam, if you have not been.
