Anchorageee

I am in Anchorage now in the hotel! We left this morning..we drove through mountains, saw a bunch of rivers and creeks..and at once place you could drive up and walk up to a viewpoint and see the terminal moraine of Ruth Glacier!! It was too cloudy to see McKinley though. After we got our hotel room in Anchorage we ate dinner at Lone Star (Dana loves that place so I like had to go there haha). OMG that place is totally Texan haha..it so brought out the Texan in me. :P Dana loves the cheese fries so I got some to try. I also got this barbecue chicken thing, rice and chili. The chili was yummmy. Anchorage has a lot of restaurants and stores Fairbanks doesn't have..and way more people. And if I thought Fairbanks had a lot of custom license plates..they are EVERYWHERE in Anchorage. I still write down the ones outside of Fairbanks but I just put a star next to those. After we ate we went to the mall (one we went to last year!). In this one shop I found a Mount Redoubt shirt haha..it says "it kicks ash" and other stuff. Then at Hot Topic I found a Charlie the Unicorn shirt! I was like OMGG haha. After the mall we drove to the Earthquake Park thing..the earthquake in the 60s devastated Anchorage and maybe the place was supposed to show something but we couldn't stay cause we were ATTACKED by mosquitoes. I was BOMBARDED. Jeez haha. Tomorrow we're going on the cruise!! I'll post my pics when I get back home

Tlingit: The dominant Indian tribe of southeast Alaska, the Tlingit took advantage of their rich environment to create a complex social structure and rich culture. They also were fierce warriors who maintained a trade monopoly over inland Indians. They were overpowered by the Russians, although not without a fight. Today, there are about eleven thousand Tlingit, most of whom still live in Southeast
