What a wonderful journey; thanks for sharing it with us. What soundtrack did you use on the Alaska video? Be safe...:sombrero:

The music is by Mike Oldfield called "Wild Goose Flaps its Wings" from his album Voyager.
We are enjoying our time in Italy with family, we will be back on the road in September. Until then safe travels all

My wife and I have been wanting to move up to Alaska, and I reckon if we did get there, we would certainly pop up to prudhoe bay, so I showed your video to my wife, so she could see how cold it was there in the summer time! Still think I would really want to dive into the ocean just the same! It would be brilliant!

Awesome photos and great video. We are hopefully headed up in 2012. Man, this makes me want to leave tomorrow! So jealous.

Safe travels you guys!

Ho boy did we forget!! Traveling with children is not for sissies, it is tough going. Scheduling beach trips, meal times, potty stops and nap times with the urge to explore the island of Sardinia it is a reminder to Tom and I how easy we have it when we only have to schedule our days for the 2 of us and not 6 people which includes a 1 and 2 year old, but the laughs and giggles are wonderful and we are enjoying our time with family before heading for South America.

One of the highlights of visiting Alaska is to see Grizzlies in the wild. We were lucky enough to see a mother with three cubs showing them the river, a great source of salmon. We met a fellow overlander and he invited us to share a tasty meal with him. Great traveling makes great friends!

And we are finally back on the road and heading south. We finally made it to Saskatchewan and loved this prairie landscape. Today we are heading into the USA and will be exploring Dakota. It feels so good to be overlanding again. We will now be on the road all the way to Argentina, although we do not anticipate getting there until the end of 2011. First we will be exploring Eastern USA and Canada

We arrived in North Dakota and just love the countryside and scenery. Unfortunately the scenic drive in the North Theodore Roosevelt National Park was not completely open as they are doing road works so could only drive a little way into the park. The wind was bitterly cold, is Dakota having an early winter chill? Drove on south to the South Roosevelt Park and are planning to do some exploring and hiking tomorrow.
