Big Lake, AK


I just realized I never posted our Big Lake adventure.

The day after Thanksgiving we drove up to Big Lake which is about an hour and a half north of Anchorage. It was a clear sunny day which made the drive just gorgeous. But it was also super windy!




A group of our friends have the tradition of renting a big house together and spending Thanksgiving and the following weekend all together. We spent a very relaxing day with them chatting, drinking coffee, eating Thanksgiving leftovers, watching tv, and playing games. It was really nice.  

This was our room for the night. 

It was really cold but the kids bundled up and braved it for a ride on the snow machines.

These were taken about 3:00pm. So you can see how low the sun is already.
Early darkness these days.

Good thing there was a big table! :)

Hot coffee and chatting on Saturday morning.

I snapped these photos as we headed home about 10am.
The sun still hadn't peeked over the mountains.
