I was lucky enough to take a float plane to the Misty Fjords while in Alaska. It was truly a breathtaking, awesome experience. It was almost spiritual too. I am a nervous flyer, by for some reason I wasn't all that scared taking this flight. I was scared when we went into some thick cloud coverage with these huge granite mountains on either side of us. I swore we were going to just smash into the side of a mountain. The pilot was so relaxed though and makes that trip multiple times a day. Luckily, we survived and it was incredible. We stopped on a lake in the middle of the fjords and it was so peaceful, knowing not one person lived anywhere near it. As I looked around, I wondered how anyone could not believe in God after seeing the beauty of the fjords. I am so glad I did it. The only negative thing was my memory card was corrupt, so half of my pictures didn't come out. At least it wasn't a complete wash and some pictures did come out.
