Well, sadly we're nearing the end of our vacation.  Today we took a riverboat ride and visited a native village park where we saw some reindeer and another moose.  In the evening, we went to a salmon bake and a play about the history of Fairbanks.  The play was a lot of fun!  Now it's time to pack up and head home.

Here's the paddle wheel boat that we rode on today.

While on the boat, we stopped by to see some sled dog training.  In the first picture, you can see the dogs hooked up to pull an ATV. They are excited and raring to go.  In the second picture, you can see the dogs zooming by pulling the ATV.

They were also training some puppies to get them ready to tackle the obstacles encountered by a sled dog.  In the first picture they are practicing going over logs in the trail.  In the second picture, you can see that they are still puppies and have forgotten all about training.

Amy looks like a giant standing amongst those tiny pine cones.  Of course, I like to call this photo "Amy pining for Tim."

At the village, we saw some reindeer.

This guy was keeping an eye on us.

And there was a big ol' moose.

Evidently, both reindeer and moose like photo bombing us.

Doesn't everybody park their plane in the river next to their log cabin?

I know we were pretty far north, but this is a little ridiculous.  We stopped by Santa's house in North Pole.

And we even saw jolly ol' Sant while we were here.
