Things to do in Anchorage Alaska? -

My family may go on vacation to Anchorage this summer. What are some of the best things to visit????

Ride the train... most scenic route is Anchorage to Seward, you can do that trip round trip same day and take a day cruise out of Seward to see marine life such as whales, otters, and seals and glaciers. Also there are a number of other places the train goes www.alaskarailroad.com. In Anchorage, there is the Alaska Native Heritage Center, there you can learn about Native cultures and see how they live in bush Alaska today, also there is a place called the Bear and Raven Theater. They have an excellent movie about the Iditarod. And take a walk around downtown Anchorage. The Town Square is really beautiful in the summer with flowers and a fountain, and near by is the Tony Knowles Coastal Trail. Right on the water.. very very beautiful. There is also a City Trolley tour that starts on 4th Ave. I think the cost is about $10 per person and it is about an hour. It takes you around Anchorage to learn a little bit about the history. Let me know if you have any questions... Feel free to email me!

In Anchorage:- Planet Walk (with a superb view of Denali)- Ulu Factory (a bit cheesy, but still educational)- Fur Factory (get some mukluks)Near Anchorage (near = 100 miles):- Kenai Peninsula / Prince William Sound. Take a 7 1/2 hour cruise to see whales, puffins, otters, glaciers, etc.Farther from Anchorage:- Denali National Park

here is a link to a website that tells you all about anchorage (history, current events, things to do, weather, etc...)http://www.10best.com/Anchorage,AK/locat��have a great time!

1. No.2. They re the same as everywhere.3. Races in Los Angeles: * Hispanic (46.5%) * White Non-Hispanic (29.7%) * Other race (25.7%) * Black (11.2%) * Two or more races (5.2%) * Filipino (2.7%) * Korean (2.5%) * Chinese (1.7%) * American Indian (1.4%) * Japanese (1.0%) * Other Asian (0.9%) * Asian Indian (0.7%) * Vietnamese (0.5%)Depends where you live. If you are from Georgia and come to California, you will notice that the numbers will be lower than what you re used to. If you are from Utah and come to California, then you will notice that the number will be higher than what you re used to.

despite wat people think u never see any celebrities

Disney employee discount question? -

I might start working for Disney in January, so then hopefully I ll get discounts on things like cruises. Anyway, what if my brother wanted to take a cruise and I didn t, can I just use my discount on him? Or do I have to go with him?

Yes, you have to be present in order to receive the cruise discount. But last I checked, you do not need to be employed for 6 months in order to receive the discount. I had only been working for 3 months and was already able to take advantage of the cruise discount, provided the ship was not booked to capacity with regular paying guests.

You, as the cast member, have to be in the cabin with your brother. The discount only counts if you are there. By the way, you have to be working there for a minimum of 6 months before you can get the cruise discount.

I believe you have to go with him because Disney is cutting back on how much discount they give to their employee s family now. You know these are tough times for everyone including Disney
