Have fun!!!

Thanks for the tips on Anchorage. I saw the data on the portage glacier but from what I have read you can only sit on the shore and look at it. It's a bit farther away but with the Matanuska Galcier you can walk out on it and take a guided tour so that is the one we plan to visit.

If you can go to a glacier and walk on it - I'd drive farther, if you can (we were limited by the fact that it WAS a work trip, and we left a little early one day so we could go see Portage Glacier).

I was reminded of the BEST Halibut I ever had was at a Brewpub in Downtown Anchorage. MELTED IN MY MOUTH. I don't think it was Humpy's (I think it was something like --- oh heck, Google is my friend http://www.glacierbrewhouse.com/home.htm)
