Is it really dark all winter in Alaska??????







Many people have asked, "is it really dark all day in Alaska during the winter?" The answer is "no"! When we came here to visit in December I was expecting it to literally look like nighttime all day long. It doesn't!!!!! There is a point when it looks like dusk most of the day, but now, on January 27 that is not really the case any longer. As a matter of fact, when it is the coldest outside it is usually the most beautiful outside.

I've decided to post some pictures so you can see for yourselves that there really is sun in Alaska during the winter!!!! These pictures were taken from various bedrooms inside our house. I thought you might like a snapshot of what we can see from inside our house when we look out to the great outdoors.

Hi Steph! I really like your blog. Writing humorously about the many trials, tribulations, frustrations, and joys that take place when you are transplanted will help make the visitors to your site feel more a part of what you are experiencing. Keep up the good work.
