That horseback riding appeals to me. Will have to look into that. Think we are going to spend a couple of extra days in Alaska now as everybody is just so positive about the experience.

Well personally my vote would go for the Mexican cruise. It would be such a nice contrast with Alaska.

But I also LOVE the state of California. Tough choices!

I am glad you are going to spend more time in Alaska. It is just such a special place. When we visited Australia we were told not to miss Ayers Rock and I am very glad we included it in our plans. I feel to go to Alaska and miss Denali would be the same kind of thing. When you come back for your National Parks trip, in a year or two, make Yellowstone a top priority. Hope you enjoy your trip and the Americans treat you as well as we were treated in your homeland.
