Alaska to Las Vegas

And I'm off. I left Alaska at the Anchorage airport (I think it's Steven's International Airport now), taking off on the Red Eye flight at 1 a.m. and heading for Salt Lake City before I went on to Las Vegas an hour later.

I will talk more about what happened during that leg of the trip later, right now I am asleep and want to catch a little sleep before I get to work in a few hours. So, for now, leaving Anchorage on my way to Vegas...

For those that have never been to Anchorage before I am including a couple of the sights of the airport here in the blog. This is the welcome sign at the base of the escalators that lead up to the security checkpoint at the concorse. I really like that little helecopter so just had to catch a picture of it here to share, and it seems like a good picture to start out this trip from Anchorage to Las Vegas with.





Facing the sign is the airport's polar bear - that's the corner of his case there at the end of the "Welcome to Alaska" sign. Here is a picture of him with me just before I went up to security and left Alaska for Las Vegas.



And I'm off for Las Vegas, I'll tell you how that went when I wake up from napping for a few hours.

NOTICE: I love trying to make this a good travel journal and while I know I fall short of my dream, I also spend a LOT of time pondering and rereading comments to see if I should post or delete as robot SPAM. So... a few rules on the comments.

I want anyone, not only Blogger members or Open ID members to be able to comment, however... Please sign your comment, if you do not it will not be published. Anonymous comments help no one and are unreliable.

Also, if you have a strong enough opinion to post a comment, please take time and make it informative - if you had a good time somewhere detail what you mean, don't just say "This place was great!!! Loved the buffet!", and if you had a lousy time please detail it, don't just say "This place sucked and the pool smelled! Ruined my vacation!" I want to feel as if you really were there when I read your comments.

If you have a website or blog where you detailed your experience it is even better, include a link to your website or blog - just make sure it is not to a SPAM site made to endorse/defame a location, because I will delete any that do not strike me as being legitimate personal sites.

Thank you for your help in making it easier for me to know what is robotic SPAM and what are real personal reviews.
