Today, in Denali NP, we saw:
Brown Bear (+ 2 yearling cubs)
Grizzly Bear (huge)
Arctic Ground Squirrels (x5-10)
Snowshoe Hare (x100 or so)
Moose (the rare pinto moose actually [this is true], with white markings, and its yearling baby with color marking)
Fox (x4)
Caribou (x6)
Dall's Sheep (x many)
lots of birds and other wildlife!!
We were in a wolf zone while hiking today, apparently, but missed out on that (thank goodness!!)
Crazy Alaska :)

Today some of the animals we saw on our boat tour of Kenai Fjords NP and driving around seward included:
Sea otters playing, Orca Whale, Humpback Whale, Fin Whales (5), Mountain Goat & kid, Dall’s Porpoise, 2 varieties of puffins (tons of them), gulls, Bald Eagles, Sea Lions (tons of them), lady-moose, and a black bear.
Alaska is a crazy cool place!
The weather has been absolutely gorgeous. We also saw several glaciers. Tomorrow we begin driving north toward Denali :)

I don't know what it is, but lately I just cry at the drop of a hat! (Oh, that's so sad your hat fell on the floor)
But yeah, seriously, there hasn't been a day of this week that I haven't choked up or cried a little bit, probably a couple of times. I guess I am more anxious about this move and more conflicted about what I'm leaving behind than my conscious brain knows.
