Sister’s Train Ride to Seward

Losing my brother to cancer back in 2017 has made me realize just how important family is, and how much I appreciate the siblings I have left to me. I am doing everything I can to bring us all closer together so that we can cherish each moment we have all that much more.

One way I do that is to have what I call Sister’s Dinner once each month! We meet up at a different restaurant once a month, just to chat about whatever is going on with us at the moment. No agenda, no stress, just sisters enjoying each other’s company.

For the month of July, I decided to up my game a little bit – and organized a day trip out to the little fishing town of Seward by train! My partner drove us in to Anchorage where he dropped us off at the train depot at 5:30 in the morning. We boarded the train at 6:30 – got into Seward around 11:30 – got back on the trail around 6:00 and were back to Anchorage at 10:15 to find Noel’s husband Hank waiting to take us home.


It’s a long day, for sure – but we had a great time together. Laughing, talking, window shopping, eating, drinking, the whole bit. We even had time to visit the Seward Sea Life Center!
