It's definitely been hard staying focused since my return from Alaska. Sitting in a chair in front of my computer is a lot less interesting than remembering all the amazing things I got to do last week. My friend Todd has also posted his memories of the trip on his blog. He's also got some great pictures posted.
As it turns out, by leaving Seward on Friday, we just missed an incredible rescue. Just 24 hours later, the same boat we had taken for our whale-watching/glacier cruise was just outside of Resurrection Bay when they came upon several people floating in the water. They were able to pull three survivors from the water and resuscitate them. Here's the Anchorage Daily News' account of the events. As beautiful as Alaska is, this was another sobering reminder of just how dangerous it can be as well.
