In June of 1997, I spent a week in Alaska, just a week after the summer solstice (longest day of the year). I didn't see darkness for a week! Here are some of my pictures.
Our first stop was Anchorage. Half of Alaska's people live here.

The Aurora Winds Bed & Breakfast, where we stayed in Anchorage.
Around Anchorage. This area is good for hiking, cross-country skiing, and dog-sledding.
This is me around 11 p.m. in Anchorage
