This was the private entrance to our room, which was in the basement I guess, but very comfortable. - Maree's Photos

We headed to Alaska in 2004 to go on a long awaited cruise (for me) and hike (for Alan). A great holiday that combined some communing with nature in the mountains around Talkeetna and a 5 star cruise from Seward to Vancouver via the Inside Passage. Alaska is very different and well worth the visit.

Maree > Anchorage Railway Station, where we went north to Talkeetna, and then south to Seward. I had never seen a railway station where there was no raised platform from which you boarded the train. This one had no platform; you climbed aboard from ground level.
