Out of all of the tours we took in Alaska, one stood out as being leaps and bounds better than the rest- and it wasn’t on our Alaska cruise or Denali!
Our favorite experience in Alaska was none other than the Kenai Fjord Tour that departed from Seward (a frequent embarking/disembarking port in Alaska about 2 1/2 hours south of Anchorage).
In this one, we wanted to share more about why that is.
Silhouette Island in the Seychelles was one of our favorite destinations when visiting the country. But as this one is known as primarily being the home of the Hilton Labriz (the only resort on the island), the two are often discussed interchangeably.

After all, if I walked over a thousand miles on a five month trip, an adventure three times as long is going to provide three times more wear and tear to whatever goes on our feet.
Obviously, we didn’t take our shoe choice lightly and ended up with KEEN Footwear!
