Alaska Is:
Alaska is not what I though
it would be. It is so much better! I never thought I would see such beautiful
things just driving down the road. You just look out the window and you see colossal
mountains, some with snow and others with pine trees. You can even see bears
or moose, just two animals out of many here in Alaska. I feel so lucky to be
here on this trip with the other AGLP participants. I will never forget this
beautiful experience.
Final Reflection:
I don’t even think I can
explain Alaska in words. It’s more like a feeling; many new friendships
and the best experience I have ever had.
There were so many new emotions and experiences. Some people climbed their first
mountains here, and when they got to the top, it was like a whole new feeling
of proud. I know I can’t believe that I made it up two mountains. Plus,
I don’t think that I would have wanted to share such a wonderful experience
with anyone other than the near 80 people I was with.
Everyone was so comforting and caring on this trip that it made me feel like
I had added almost 80 more people to my family. There were times I felt homesick,
and at least one person was there to make me feel better, I’m going to
miss everyone that came on this trip when I get home. I made so many new friendships
on this trip, and I can’t believe we’re already leaving tomorrow.
This Alaska trip has changed me in so many ways. I have learned so much more
and don’t regret one thing about the time here. I am so glad that I got
accepted to AGLP 2006. This whole trip was truly amazing!
