Last Saturday a friend and I rounded up our kids and headed to downtown Anchorage to watch the ceremonial start of the Iditarod.
Ava still talks about all of the dogs, and her favorite was a big frog that was riding in one of the sleds (a man dressed in costume)!
It became more of a reality that I live in Alaska while I was down there, SO many different cultures, and lots of people wearing fur (and not just coats, but hats with the animal head still on, or tail attached!!), and when we weren't protected by a building, it was FREEZING cold!!
I am definitely excited to experience these amazing summers I keep hearing about! We'll see!
