We were in Alaska from August 20, 2004 to September 1, 2004 and the weather was fairly warm. We only had a little rain while we were docked in Sitka. This is also the shoulder season for booking cruises.

Cheers

When we were there in '98 and flew up to Kotzebue, I was filming video at midnight (still light) and the ranger station had a sign out the front telling everyone that the next sunset was in about 2 weeks time. Smiler

Hi Max!

Alaska will be on our list for 2007.

For 2006 we are going on Insight's sold out "Best of Spain & Portugal" tour. In May we are going on TT's "Best of Italy & Sicily" in Sept. Both of these tour were booked last year.

Cat, you will enjoy Spain, Portugal and Italy. We did Insight's winter tour "Amazing Spain and Portugal" in March 2003. In fact, we were in Lisbon when the war in Iraq broke out. We just did a G****s tour"Best of Italy" in October 2005. We enjoyed the G****s tour but not the tour director. Insight has some excellent people that do Italy.

Cheers
