#hotelstaycation
We spent a wonderful week at Princess Wilderness Lodge. The hotel looks newly constructed and has wide property and everywhere is clean. It had at least 4 restaurants.,
From Visiter Center (5min drive from the hotel), we have more than five trail courses.
I think this hotel is the best in Denli.

Aurora Winter Train.
Getting There - EWR/SFO/SEA/FAI
Experience - If Polar Express train came to life, this would be it. I highly recommend anyone visiting Alaska in winter to do just this. The majestic beauty of Alaskan winter, it’s exactly like what you imagine and so much more. Oh and the northern lights. As the Native American lady that sat next to me on the plane said, “ Welcome to Gods Country”. For those looking for low-key adventure, soul searching, and everything else in between.
Central Alaska, Done and dusted! #nationalpark #alaska #aurora Fairbanks, Alaska 2023.
