I wanted to share some of the images from Alaska! We had a great time, even with all the rain and stubborn un-setting sun!
These first images are from our extra long lay-over in Seattle - which turned out to be sunny and warm. Unfortunately, we had a disposable camera, so some of the Pike's Market images are underexposed.
This is one of my favorite images!
These guys were amazing and funky! The band name is The Walkin' Pesos, I highly recommend taking a listen.
This was an incredible store with vintage clothing, and I picked up a card, but now I can't find it, otherwise I would post their information.
We stayed at the Hampton for a couple of nights and they have done a wonderful job with branding. Everywhere you look they have interesting black and white photographs - much like eye candy (which I love!)
This may seem strange, to photograph a cup of coffee, and I'm sure 10 minutes into it the Baritsta's were wondering what I was up too... But it was so beautiful, I didn't want my husband to drink it before I captured the perfect image!
It rained so hard one day, we couldn't get out of the car...
This was the bedroom at one of our other hotels.
This is part of the Alaskan pipeline.
This is a map of the Alaskan pipeline.
For crazy people, like us, they have rooms that are -40F. Not sure why we agreed to pay to go into the room... They gave us a cup of warm water to throw into the air, and it disintegrated before it hit the ground. Totally crazy! Mine actually froze and broke all over the ground because I didn't throw it high enough.
Outside the crazy room, my glasses fogged over - and stayed that way for about 5 minutes.
Here is a picture of my fogged glasses, with a fogged camera lens.
This cemetery was amazing! It was a historical cemetery in Fairbanks and after we had been there a while the caretaker came and told us some fascinating stories.
This soldier's dog tags are actually mounted on his tomb! The story is, he drowned in a lake. And he hated to swim. Not only that, he was constantly being written up for being a sloppy dresser and his clothes were found on the shore folded perfectly. The theory is he had been seen with "Russian men" and they may have done away with him for one reason or another.
