My friend went on an Alaskan cruise two years ago during the summer, and apparently it was beautiful. I'd definitely do it if it was summer.

This is the cruise I took and it allowed for us to see so much up close. Tiny ships to get right next to everything, where the big cruise ships can't fit. Very cool.


Supposedly Alaska has the highest rape per capita rate and a very high insanity rate.

Today I read how each inhabitant of the Vatican is accused of some crime about 1,5 times a year.
But that Alaska stuff makes sense.
Likely, cause there are too few femmes there. There's trappers, oil rig workers, fishermen etc. It's like Mos Eisley in grey...

yes, and then the lack of sunlight for half the year, extreme weather, long distance between cities... enough to cause anyone to go nuts...

There's a mountain in Alaska called Mt McKinley. It's almost as far north as I am.

I need to move farther north because my birthday, June 21st, is basically the biggest party of the year

It's so cold in Alaska
