Paddle boats fit four people and run $8 for half an hour or $11 for an hour. <br /><br />We had a great time! Wouldn't have thought about it without this list :) - THANK YOU!bhappyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06809064707312205279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14194867.post-1329102502720126582009-06-12T17:13:50.834-08:002009-06-12T17:13:50.834-08:00Thanks again for posting our activities at the Lou...Thanks again for posting our activities at the Loussac Library.

Also, as tourism is down (30% according to a RR employee I chatted with), there are some great deals to be had. If you haven't ridden the rails yet, this may be the year to do it!Deannanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14194867.post-14992546575004471042009-05-21T23:51:14.884-08:002009-05-21T23:51:14.884-08:00Great list!!

I loved watching the salmon when were there last year.<br /><br />I think Alaska is a place I could visit multiple times because of all the really cool places to explore!Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00103993586753057004noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14194867.post-65214027166436987492009-05-21T08:25:51.934-08:002009-05-21T08:25:51.934-08:00Thank you so much for pulling this together again....Thank you so much for pulling this together again.

It's like geo-caching but you don't need a gps. It's free but you need a stamp and a record book. There are lots of sites in and around Anchorage. You can check it out at http://www.letterboxing.org/. (I haven't done it yet but I plan to.) <br /><br />Thank you again for the summer activities list!Kathrynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16336693769412372305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14194867.post-88300385380490679182009-05-20T09:18:33.552-08:002009-05-20T09:18:33.552-08:00What an extensive list!

This is our first summer here where we aren't completely overrun with visitors (who prefer not to sightsee) or out of town at family weddings and the associated obligations. It looks like it is shaping up to be a great summer and crossing my fingers *might* make up for last summer's weather? I needed a list like this. Thanks for doing the footwork. (you may want to add whale watching/glacier cruises to the list...I am going to do my second in July...FABULOUS!)

With the economy causing people to rethink their summer vacation plans, I think more people need to really think about what they can do in their home town (or within a days drive). I'm sure there are more activities around than most people realize. I can think of things in Colorado that I've never done that don't cost a lot and would be a lot of fun<br /><br />Have a great summer!!!!Roohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14419090547121674188noreply@blogger.com
