North to Alaska!!

I flew with my 1 yr. old daughter from PA to Chicago, then to Seattle, then to Anchorage, AK.  We had a very small furnished apartment right off base.  No carpeting.  I hate used sofas, beds, etc.  I couldn't eat for a few days and when I did, it wasn't much and hard to keep down.  It looked like someone had kicked in the door since even though it was closed and locked, it came in a bit where the frame was.  Didn't feel very secure!  It was July so the weather was very nice.  But, due to longer day time hours, the sun came up very early and set very late.  The first morning I awoke thinking it was about 8 am and my husband was late for work.  I looked at the clock.  The time was 3 am!!!  I thought maybe our clock had stopped.  We had to have special darkening blinds on all the windows since the sun didn't set until about 10 pm.  Most people put aluminum foil to cover their windows so the children wouldn't wake up too early!!!  What a learning experience.
