I'm going to Alaska!

I'm so excited!

A little over a year ago a few of my close friends moved to Sitka, Alaska to work and go to school. Since then one has moved back, but two still live up there. They're here in Washington visiting this week, but when they go back I'm going to go with them! Along with our other friend who used to live up there :D

We've been trying to plan a trip for me to go up and visit ever since they moved, but nothing ever worked out :( But now it finally has! My manager approved my vacation time earlier this afternoon :D

We're leaving the 21st of this month. We're going to drive up through Canada and take the Prince Rupert ferry to Sitka. I'll be staying in one of my friend's dorm room (yea! I don't have to pay for a hotel!! ;)). I'll be flying back to Seattle with my other Washingtonian friend on the 27th. Leaving our other two amigos in Alaska :(

I can't wait! I'm so excited! I just had to share :o

Don't worry, the furkids will be well taken care of by my parents :) Although, I will miss them while I'm away :(

Alaska is pretty.

I work across the street from the Sea-Tac airport. Tell me when you'll be in Seattle and how much time you have there. If I have the day off I could bring Ashlee and Nina to my work. You could take our free shuttle over and come to my hotel. (Well not my Hotel, but where I work) You could meet my girls, and me too:)

Alaska? :eek: That's great! Have fun! :D

oh that sounds like tons-o-fun!! Have a nice trip!

have a great time-at least you get out of the awful summer heat!! well Seattle isn't that warm-I'm in the Midwest-home of high humidity and mosquitoes the size of 747's

Sounds like it will be a great trip!!

Make sure to take lots of pictures!!!:)

I don't think so :( We're trying to make the quickest straight trip from Everett to Prince Rupert so we can have some quality time in Sitka. I think Kelowna is a bit too far east :(

Well I officially hate you now. I have always wanted to see Alaska. I am officially jealous. AK....trust me, from what I hear the mosquitoes in Alaska make the ones in Indiana look like lightweights. I know for a fact that Indiana mosquitoes ARE wimpy compared to the ones in northern Wisconsin and Minnesota!! lol
