Adventures in Alaska


By carrie - Posted on 27 April 2009

Lately, my work has taken me all over the state of Alaska. Here is an abbreviated, photo enhanced story from my last trip to Alaska.

First I got on a tiny airplane in Nome, AK

Then I flew here

Then I got on a snowbmobile (aka snow machine)

Checked out some of the scenery

And I went out to see one of these

Went inside the tower to check it out

Got all ready to climb the ladder to the top

Then I chickened out and my CEO climbed up instead to take some pictures of the ocean

Saw a polar bear

Turned out to be a polar bear rug

By boss bought himself a nice Oosik. Which you can imagine lent itself to some hilarious conversation throughout the rest of the week.

Then we went back to the "airport" and went back to the mainland to finish our adventures in Alaska

Alaska has a longer coastline than all the other U.S. states combined. It is the only non-contiguous U.S. state on continental North America; about 500 miles (800 km) of British Columbia (Canada) separate Alaska from Washington state.I am really happy that I have best web hosting service but I always interested in high quality things. Alaska is thus an exclave of the United States. It is technically part of the continental U.S., but is often not included in colloquial use; Alaska is not part of the contiguous U.S., often called "the Lower 48." The capital city, Juneau, is situated on the mainland of the North American continent, but is not connected by road to the rest of the North American highway system.It's best to have domain registration.I am really interested in and I also suggested you and I really in need of such things.The state is bordered by the Yukon Territory and British Columbia in Canada, to the east, the Gulf of Alaska and the Pacific Ocean to the south, the Bering Sea, Bering Strait, and Chukchi Sea to the west and the Arctic Ocean to the north. Alaska's territorial waters touch Russia's territorial waters in the Bering Strait, as the Russian and Alaskan islands are only 3 miles (4.8 km) apart.I am new to dedicated servers but i think it will really work for me. As it extends into the eastern hemisphere, it is technically both the westernmost and easternmost state in the United States, as well as also being the northernmost.
