Parents in Alaska

Sunday, September 11, 2011
Mom and Dad's summer trip to Alaska has come to an end, but we had a great time over the past week. Here's a quick re-cap...

Date Night: We got dressed up and went out for a night on the town, which included a trip to the museum, fancy drinks at a trendy bar, and dinner at Muse.



Roasted Duck with Risotto.

Filet Mignon and mashed potatoes.

Denali: We stopped at the North-side Denali overlook on our drive back from the cabin, but Denali didn't want to come out from behind the clouds. So it goes. Oh well, it was still beautiful




Hike: We took the parents to Alyeska Ski Resort thinking they would take the ski lift to the top of the mountain and meet us up there. Nope. They hiked the whole way to the top!!

Mom & Dad making their way up the switch backs.

Top of the mountain hooray-- it was cloudy but still had nice views. It's always odd when you see an airplane flying BELOW you!

Our post-hike treat. The BEST sweet potato fries (with cilantro jalapeno aoli) I've ever had.

Love the parents!
