We finally got off-ship and landed in Seward Alaska. Seward is named after the Sec of State who purchased alaska, who was coincidently from just down the thruway here in new york. A short van drive took us to anchorage, where we spent a morning doing laundry, and evening having an incredible steak dinner with our friends who live there Burns and Stephanie, and a really fun walkabout at the local sat morning farmers market.

Anchorage is a nice city, far and away the largest in alaska, and has most everything you'd expect in a city. You can actually see Denali from certain highpoints, which is incredible given that the peak is something like 120 miles away. That's how big it it.

Tom and I rented some bikes and did a nice ride along the coastal trail which was very scenic. We then biked around the city for a couple of hours, and really got a feel for it. It was a nice place, and would be ok to live there for 6 months when they have daylight.
