We leave behind the luxury of our cruise ship and now the real adventure begins. We are about to explore Alaska’s interior starting today with heading out the to tundra up to the Arctic Circle and Prudhoe Bay. There is no internet for several days, we are now going to “rough it” :-)

We will catch up on posts upon our return to civilization :-)

We flew to 250 miles north of the Arctic  Circle, what a difference from the mountains, now we have nothing but tundra and cold, cold winds. We toured the oil fields. There is actually a lot of wildlife here, over 150 species of birds, foxes, musk ox, caribou and many more. We saw tundra swans, lots of birds and a fox! The fox was quick, no pictures.

We went to the Arctic Ocean and took a dip! It was COLD! But we did it :-)
