Trip update

Greetings all!

 Now we are in the middle of pretty rough seas, about 10 hours out from Seward, our departure terminal. We've had a wonderful time although I feel like a bloated pig...continual deserts and the occaisional beer and that does it..

  Yesterday we had a great day in the Glacier Bay Nat'l Park, getting up close to the various glaciers and seeing wildlife. Today, however, a different story with wind, rain, fog to the surface, and waves to 11 feet as per the announcements. I'm thinking more like 100 feet, but we are fine!

 Tomorrow is docking at Seward, the domed car train to Anchorage, and spending the night there. We then take another dome car train up to Denali Nat'l Park and spend a couple of days there, then on to Fairbanks.

 So far the trip has been really really fun. Seeing the bears that close a few days ago was special, and the dolphins around the ship is fun too.

 The past week has really gone fast, and I hope you've all had a good week too.

 Love,

UR/Dad
