Itinerary: Alaska – Anchorage, Seward and Denali
After testing out road trip destinations, we were ready to take 2020 to the next level. Alaska had been on our wish list, created a rough draft itinerary for fun, and then things started to line up that suddenly made this trip a reality. An outdoor playground awaited us and we could not wait to explore it. While a week is certainly not enough to time see everything, it was certainly plenty of time to appreciate all the beauty Alaska has to offer.
