• Planning Your Amazing Adventur Planning Your Amazing Adventure Holidays in Alaska

  • From: jamespattrick
  • Description:

    Alaska is a vast state full of wilderness and potential adventures. From hiking to fishing to skiing, you are sure to find an adventure holiday that suits your needs and desires. Here are a few things to consider when planning an Alaskan holiday.
    
    Decide when to visit Alaska
    
    Alaska's peak tourist season runs from about the middle of May through mid-September. The long days and warm temperatures make this a great time to go camping, hiking, bird watching and general sightseeing.
    
    The flowers show up at the beginning of summer, so vacationers can enjoy nature in her full glory. Alaska's protected waters, rivers and lakes also offer you the great opportunity to go rafting or kayaking in a beautiful wilderness setting.
    
    Summer is also the season of higher prices, however, with July being the absolute worst when it comes to cost. If you plan to go to Alaska during the peak tourist season, be sure to book well in advance to ensure you have the necessary lodgings.
    
    The "shoulder seasons" occur in early May and late September through October. An increasing number of vacationers are taking Alaska holidays during these shoulder months to take advantage of mild weather, reduced crowds and discounts on activities and travels. The shoulder months are the perfect time to go boating and fishing.
    
    The Alaskan weather patterns typically change at some point between late August and the middle of September. Frequent rainstorms and cooler weather cause the foliage to turn vivid, bright colors. It's also a great time to view the wild animals in their natural habitat.
    
    Winter runs from November through April and contrary to what many people believe, Alaska isn't dark and inaccessible and the people don't hibernate. While daylight isn't as abundant as in the summer months, many parts of the large state still enjoy 6 to 12 hours of sunlight every day.
    
    Alaska offers plenty of cold weather activities for snow lovers to enjoy. More sporty types might enjoy trying their hands at snowmobiling, snowboarding, downhill skiing, dog sledding, and ice skating or curling.
    
    Fishermen might like to try ice fishing for king salmon or rainbow trout, both of which are commonly caught in the winter months. You can spend the long evenings at a cultural festival, viewing the Northern Lights or cuddling with that special someone in front of a fireplace.
    
    Set your trip itinerary
    
    some of the more popular tourist destinations include Denali National Park, Kenai Fjords National Park and Mount McKinley, the highest mountain peak in North America. It's also worth taking a driving tour of the picturesque coastal towns and taking a short day cruise to view aquatic wildlife at its very best.
    
    Another option is to choose a travel package offered by a reputable adventure vacation company. For example, Grand American Adventures offers several popular Alaskan tour packages. Sign up for one of these and you'll get to enjoy 8 to 21 days of unique adventures, private transportation and the advice of a professional tour leader.
    
    Alaska is teeming with the opportunities to enjoy outdoor adventures. From water activities to winter sports, you'll find activities that suit your style in America's 49th state.

• Summer at the Whistler Alpine Summer at the Whistler Alpine Chalet

  • From: whistleralpinechalet
  • Description:

    

    We have had such a lovely summer so far!  Interesting and fun guests from England, Holland, Germany, Switzerland, Russia, Italy, Japan, Spain,  the USA and of course, Canadians!

    It has been such a pleasure to introduce them to the unique beauty in and around Whistler: whether it is hiking the Rainbow Lake trail, shopping in the cosmopolitan resort village of Whistler or simply relaxing in our hot tub after a satisfying day exploring, our guests really and truly relax at our Chalet.

    We haven't had any bears dropping in for some fresh cookies this year, but one never knows!  Two years ago, while our Chef was baking Maple Chocolate Chip cookies, a big black bear wandered into the Chalet and began sniffing around!  Of course, the chef was very quick to open the back door and the black bear just sauntered through into the back yard.

• Rainbow in Mexico Rainbow in Mexico

  • From: Edward Bell
  • Description:

    Guanajuato, Mexico

    I have been to Hawaii and you can pretty much count on seeing a rainbow before you go home.  After going to the Mummy museum it started to rain as we left.  Sun on one side dark clouds on the other, perfect rainbow conditions.  I saw it as the taxi took us back to town and just said I guess I just need to enjoy it while I can.  15 minutes later we are let off down the street from out hotel and it was still there.  I got out the camera and did my best to stay out of the rain.  A rainbow was the last thing I thought I would see on this trip.

• Na Pali Coast, October 2011 Na Pali Coast, October 2011

  • From: Mojodining
  • Description:

    Sometimes you can turn bad luck into good luck.  As our ship was approaching the Na Pali coast, we ran into a rainstorm and a lot of clouds.  Showing some rare patience, I waited on deck about an hour and the sun began to peek through.  Shortly thereafter a rainbow appeared over a valley between the cliffs.  Add the enchanting colors and contrasts of late afternoon, some clouds and the natural beauty of the cliffs and voila` - nice photo op.  Enjoy.
