[Oversea] Alaska, USA 2007 美國阿拉斯加

Alaska, USA 2007 美國阿拉斯加

Alaska is really a wonderful place of the mother nature. We got a lot of fun in camping, hiking, berry picking, birding, wildlife watching, ice climbing and more. I am not surprised for someone say : 'Alaska is the last frontier where you should go at least once in your lifetime.' If you have not been there , consider for your next destination.

May I express my deep appreciation to our leader Felix for organizing the trip and guiding us for bird watching.

Hi Mike and Angus,

Thanks for watching.

In Alaska, the air is fresh and clear. The transparency is high and the starry sky is brilliant. It is wonderful to go camping or stay in a lakeside cabin there.

The puffins and auks in my photos were fed at the Alaska Sealife Centre, Seward. We did see some wild one during the cruise to Kenai Fjord National Park. Unfortunately, my files were damaged. I know Felix got some nice one.

cheers,
Cam
