Today's Geography Lesson

After having to explain this concept to several people, I realized that I may need to back up a step.  Yes, you can drive to Alaska.  It is connected to Canada (you know, that big country above us?)  I realize that some people may be a bit confused, as Alaska sometimes appears as an island near Hawaii on many maps.  Trust me, Alaska is not an island, it is not tropical, and it is most definitely attached to North America.  This is the route we plan to take:

And holy crap, that looks really far when you look at it like that.

And for anyone that wants a better look at where we'll be living:

That's about a 45 minute to one hour drive from Anchorage.  As you can see, that's not too far north, so I  will not be living in complete darkness, nor will it be below zero year round.
