Juneau, Alaska

Here, you'll find an unexpected mix of fishermen and teachers, legislators and artists, lawyers and homemakers, dock workers and frontier entrepreneurs, students and Native elders. Somehow they make it all work.

Spend a few days and you'll see why so many folks choose to visit and live here. In Juneau, you can watch humpbacks in the morning, take in a performing arts performance in the evening, and toss back a few locally brewed beers at night.  . And there are all the activities and attractions you'd expect in a state capital.
There are several glaciers to choose from, but Mendenhall Glacier is the largest and you can actually drive right to it if you're so inclined. Alaska's most popular attraction  is located just 13 miles from downtown and right near the airport.

Everyone wants to see a little wildlife, even if from afar. Juneau has such an abundance of air, land and sea creatures that you are more than likely to catch a glimpse of a bear, bald eagle, or even a humpback whale while you are there, especially April through November.
