. It's actually been warmer up here (this winter at least) than it has been down there. We haven't had any snow since early January.

Of course that's what you meant. Think you'll ever make it up here? We know all the good places.

or take a cruise through the Inside Passage? Either is wonderful. We spent two weeks down in Southeast last May, traveling mostly by ferry, and thoroughly loved it.

Started in Fairbanks, took the train to Denali, spent 2 days there (my favorite). Then down to Anchorage and the Kenai Peninsula, cruised the rest of the way. So beautiful everywhere we went!
