A Morning Walk in Anchorage, Alaska...

in travel •  7 years ago 

More than 40% of the population of Alaska reside in Anchorage. In people terms, that is just under 300,000. It is also centrally located to connect the rest of the country by rail, road or sea, but it is not the capital. That honour goes to Juneau which lies much further south, has a population of only 30,000 people and isn't connected to the rest of the country by road.

We visited Anchorage during Summer in August and the weather was gorgeous. Blue skies, warm temperature and lots of locals enjoying it. Some of the things we saw as we spent a day walking around Anchorage...

BEARS

FLOWERS

A T-BUCKET

BUILDINGS & SHOPS

TRAMS & TROLLEYS

MURALS

FOOD

Anchorage is a very pleasant town. The streets are wide and clean and the people friendly.

Stay tuned for more of Alaska coming up, as we head into the wild!

              OMGoodness! I never realized how beautiful Anchorage is.
              I for one did not have a clue that there was such a unique experience to visiting there. Guess I need to get outta the house more often... lol
              I mean, we have all seen the TV shows, survivalist, outdoorsmen-type shows but you have given us, or at least me, a completely spectacular view of real life in "Big City Alaska".

                    It looks like a really nice place @bkkshadow! How much time did you spend there? I would love to visit, but I would have to go during the summer as I hate cold weather lol. Anyways, I have followed and upvoted this post, as I really enjoy travel. Are you from Bangkok by the way?
