In Alaska Now

[Sonoma]

Haven't been to Anchorage (yet), but I got these shots when we were in Juneau last May.

Just curious, but in any of the local restaurants, does the children's section of the menu describe anything as being "Texas-sized"?

Nope, but I did see Alaska sized a few times. The City Diner is a good place for breakfast, Minnesota and Benson. Not sure where your hostel (most I knew were downtown) but 5th Ave mall is a basic mall with the usual stores and food court on the top floor. 4th has some cool shops like the mint. Saturday market should be starting soon on 3rd, lots of booths, some farmers market stuff, rides. Not sure the cost, but there are places you can rent bikes if you don't want to walk.

If you need help finding anything just post up. I can always ask my friends who still live there if those here can't help you.

Teysa I actually live in Anchorage so if you have any questions let me know... whatever you do DO NOT stay at a place called the Mush Inn.. trust me on this one.

Where is the hostel you are staying at? If it's downtown be careful at night as there are alot of unsavory people that meander down there...
