First Days in Alaska
It’s our third day out and we’ve got to be the luckiest visitors ever because we got the chance to see Mt. McKinley 3 days in a row. Yesterday we stopped to paint it with the tundra landscpe in the foreground and the big blue sky and snow capped mountains stretching into forever.
Although it’s summer, it’s pretty chillyout here and there’s a great artic wind blowing most of the time in the park. That didn’t slow us down though, and we’ve been out painting for hours, as it never really gets dark. There are a few hours of half-light, but we haven’t stayed up late enough to really experience this Alaskian version of darkness.
After two days in the park we’ve headed up to Fairbanks to spend a day checking out Native Alaskan art before heading south to the Kenai peninsula.
We can’t wait to keep you updated, so depending on internet connection availability we’ll be posting as often as we can..
