Our last night in Alaska was spent at Mount
Alyeska Resort, the largest hotel we’ve stayed in for a while, but very nice.
Our room rate included a trip up the
mountain on the tram the next day.
At the top of the mountain we’d hoped to be
able to hike a short trail, but as there was still snow on the top it was
closed.
It was a beautiful sunny day and the views
were absolutely gorgeous. What the guy on the tram told us they called 'brochure days', I can quite see why.
Back at the bottom of the mountain, we
headed off to Girdwood and a short walk around town
before enjoying a late lunch at Chair 5 restaurant.
As it was a holiday weekend The Seward
Highway was busy with heavy traffic, so that put paid to the hopes we’d have of
stopping at some of the viewpoints for one last look at the fabulous views.
Alaska was absolutely fabulous, despite our very
mixed weather, we can’t wait
to come back.
Have fun,
we are!
