You say, “Why Drive to Alaska?”, we
say, “Why Not!” We believe that the drive between the start and
finish is what traveling somewhere really means, not just the final
destination.
Sure, we can take a cruise or a
flight to Alaska – but we won’t see anything in between. The people,
the culture, the geography, the weather patterns and the road are where
our vacations become more than just a red dot on a map.
We are going to experience more in
the next six to seven weeks about ourselves, our country-side, our
Canadian neighbors and our 49th state, Alaska, than we would
if we just took a 14-day vacation to one destination.
Sure, we are driving over 11,000
miles in a cramped car – but this will give us experience about our own
limits. If we do this trip successfully, we will be able to do
anything. With thorough planning, contingency plans, budget control
and site seeing destinations to boot, we have a well-planned vacation
ahead of us.
We are going to spend a night or two
in each large city en route to our destination to take in the nightlife,
the locals, and culture. Each night between the large cities, we will
be camping out, making our own food and doing the wilderness scene.
It's going to be an amazing trip, a
trip of a life-time. Many people have said they are jealous of our
trip, as they should be, we are going to have an amazing time!
Thanks for visiting!
Keep track of our travels, and visit
back every few days as we update!
