Alaska activities

[Alex]

I don't know if they have moose on Kodiak so there wasn't much talking about them. Though a University of Alaska student was killed on campus by one when I was up there. That got a lot of talking (the student was drunk and harassing the moose;moose, for those who don't know, can be pretty mean).

Our trip will be based out of Anchorage so Ketchican and southeast Alaska are probably out of the question.

As a broad framework this is what we've put together (and I'm surprised I've even bothered to think about how many days we have at this stage of the game):

Friday, August 17 - Fly from SFO to Anchorage
Saturday, August 18 - Fly from Anchorage to Homer. Take ferry from Homer to Kodiak.
Sunday, August 19 - Kodiak.
Monday, August 20 - Fly from Kodiak to Anchorage. Rent car and begin road trip.
Tuesday, August 21 - Road trip
Wednesday, August 22 - Road trip
Thursday, August 23 - Road trip, return to Anchorage
Friday, August 24 - Anchorage
Saturday, August 25 - Anchorage (state fair?)
Sunday, August 26 - Anchorage in the morning, fly home at 2p.m.


For the road trip I'm thinking of heading to Fairbanks via Denali National Park and then looping back to Anchorage via some different route.
