grand Alaska- September 5,2015
Would love to chat with someone else going on this trip. Bob an I are celebrating our 50th this year and picked this Tauck tour because we enjoyed our 20th anniv Tauck tour to Hawaii.
We will be arriving in Anchorage a day early (supposedly to rest before the welcome dinner) but having read about the tidal bore will be renting a car and traveling the Seward Highway on Saturday along the Turnagain Arm and as far down to Seward as seems possible in one day so we get back in time for the welcome event.
Our flight home from Vancouver was originally scheduled for after noon time but was changed to 6 am, this made another day added to our trip. We discovered that the Vancouver sightseeing buses will pick you and your luggage up at dock and store luggage during day tour then drop us off at our airport hotel afterwards.
Usually on memorial day weekend I am hoping that the summer, my favorite season will never end, but this year, with only this one season between me and this Alaska adventure I have mixed feelings. 105 days to wait.
