Land of the Midnight Sun………really!!

These pictures were taken at 11:15 PM and it is still light outside. It was day light long after we retired but I couldn’t stay awake long enough to take pictures at midnight!!

Bill is the early riser in our household, so he took these pictures at 4:00 AM and the sun was already high in the sky!!

When we left the Fairbanks area and headed toward Denali NP, the days were 21 hours and 43 minutes long. I can’t imagine how dark the winters are here!!

Just us kids…..trying to sleep in broad daylight!!
