Here are some views from along the Glenn Highway t.co/d3mXMpxIN…

A little wild moose action on the side of the road. -J t.co/x2UAb63pG…

Our evening ended with ice cream, and all were pleased… t.co/YbS93dmYV…

Huzzah! Tomorrow we celebrate the “fresh clean pants” day of the trip. –S

We also came across a pod of Orcas, which I got a little video of. Scott got the baby breaching in pictures (Jen saw with her own eyes only because she had put her camera away). During one of the breaches the baby orca was squealing! #Adorable t.co/IQEuQ5PHK…

Here is a video of the humpback whale bubble-net feeding from the first breach to diving down again! -J t.co/7PtRewvjj…

We had the experience of a lifetime yesterday, watching a group of 15+ humpback whales using a bubble-net feeding technique a dozen times. Incredible! t.co/ElFSBMJ2P…

Today’s highlight was my mom’s flightseeing tour of Denali, which included a glacier landing! Glad we booked this when originally planning this trip, as wildfire smoke obscured the usual viewpoints. –S t.co/Btznb2p7J…

Also saw sea lions, otters, porpoises, big mountains, lovely forests, and amazing vistas.

Pretty sure today was my mom’s favorite travel day of the last decade or more. She’s astounded and thoroughly in love with the state. -S t.co/S4Efet76f…

Some significant calving action! t.co/CIhgyZpUl…

The drive south of Anchorage is always beautiful (even in really harsh light)! -J t.co/vucT3hjwq…

Spent 5 hours checking out glaciers today in Prince William Sound. Saw a bear swimming, lots of glacial calving, and a whale breached totally out of the water. It was an epic day for sightseeing! -J t.co/DPsaEOpZe…

We made it to Alaska! Beautiful sunny conditions flying in made for some great views. t.co/8d3PVhTcO…

En route to Alaska with my mom, fulfilling a bucket list destination for her.

This was originally a surprise trip we had planned for 2020, then pushed to 2021, then had to ruin the surprise on earlier this year. Here’s what that looked like 😂 -S

@flyinpenguin On this trip, yes—but we’ve both done those three individually.

Scott’s map is in blue, Jen’s is purple. The other colors are “new” counties we’ll be hitting on trips later this summer -S t.co/ZjaITl3WG…

Here is our updated map of all the counties we have visited together.

Each color represents a different year and we fill in a county with the year of the first time we visited the county together.

Purple is 2022, so far just this trip! t.co/MaRNwt6gh…

Hotel beer as we repack all our gear—gah, we didn’t even camp once given the constant rain—before our early flight home tomorrow.

More pics to be posted as we get a chance. -S t.co/z21HiDuOB…
