Alaska & Canada Vacation

We flew from DFW to Seattle to Anchorage to Fairbanks, Alaska.  From Fairbanks, we took a train to Denali National Park.   From Denali, the Dan Dipert  bus picked us up and took us to Anchorage.  We were then escorted to Whittier, Alaska to our day long trip through the ice bergs of Prince William Sound to Valdez.  Our Dan Dipert  bus then took us from Valdez through the Yukon territory of Canada to Skagway, Alaska.  From Skagway we rode the ferry through the inside passage to Prince Rupert, Canada.   Our trip concluded with a few days in Victoria and Vancover, Canada.    The 15 day trip concluded with a shuttle flight from Vancover to Portland, Oregon where we caught the flight to DFW.
