I think the plan is leaning towards taking the very scenic Alaska Railroad to Seward on Saturday morning, doing a full-day harbor cruise (in the words of SeeYa, it was the best $150 she ever spent), staying overnight at the HIX, and checking out Exit Glacier and the Sea Life center before heading back to ANC on the Sunday evening train.

The pre-DO (or post-DO) flight experience will likely be to check out the northernmost point in the U.S.: BRW.

This'll be happening around June 21--also known as Summer Solstice. We'll be posting details and exact dates in a bit, and, of course, things are subject to change. But start making sure your calendar is clear now!
SWD... via AKRR? Scenic yes, but soo slow! Glad there is decent fishing down there, and lots of places to go fishing and sleep in a tent

Perhaps we'll have to do ANC-ADK-SWD-BRW-ANC
