Alaska Is:
         Alaska is a place that can’t be described in one word. The land is always changing, never stopping, always showing us new wonders that will take your breath away. To the tallest mountain to the smallest stream, this place is beautiful to me. I hope everyone can see Alaska’s beauty at least once so they can witness something like nothing you’ve ever seen before. Alaska has a spirit of its own and once you get a feel of it you’ll have to have more.

Final Reflection:
       Three weeks to some isn’t very long. Some would think you couldn’t do a lot in three weeks, but for us three weeks feel like a lifetime. To me time stands still, you lose all track of time. I love this place so much and this trip really brings out the full spirit of Alaska. Its spirit is free, wild, and so alive, once you see and hear it you can’t get enough. The beauty of the mountains and rivers are so breathtaking. This trip is not just a normal trip, you really find yourself and you make so many new friends. Really we’re one big family. It’s sad to leave, but I hope everyone grows a little more because of this trip.
