Denali and Mt. McKinley, Again

The whole time John's family was in town he had to work. He told us to wait for him to get off work Saturday night and he would drive with us to Denali National Park. We all thought it would be a faster trip than it was. We ended up leaving Fairbanks around 9 PM and didn't get home until 4 AM. It was quite the trip. This picture was taken around 11 PM.

We saw a Mom and her baby. I was actually getting bored of seeing moose all the time but this was really fun to see!


I couldn't believe it because the first time we went (May) it was like winter with snow on the ground and this time it was beautiful weather and very green.




And we saw this little moose

I love Denali. I love Alaska.

Here we are at Mt. McKinley. It was a couple of hours further than Denali. We drove all the way there only to find out that it was too cloudy to see the Mountain:(
We got some good pictuers though. It was probably 1 or 2 in the morning when these pictures were taken. The second camera makes it look dark but it really wasn't.





Amanda was a trooper and drove most of the way home. We were all so tired. I was out most of the way home but I do remember waking up and see Amanda with her sunglasses on at about 3 am. Ha ha only in Alaska. I will miss the sunlight. It gave me so much more energy and I didn't sleep nearly as much.
