In 2003 a group of friends decided to do something exciting together. Off to Alaska!! Three years later 44 of us actually did it. We flew into Fairbanks to begin a one week land tour by train and luxury motor coach staying at beautiful lodges and touring Denali National Park. At Anchorage we boarded the cruise ship Summit for another week. We cruised down Alaskan coast and through the Inside Passage to Vancouver. What a trip! Great friends, incredible scenery, and fabulous food and drink!!!
