A peek inside Travel Plans for our Trip to Homer, Alaska. A week in a breathtakingly beautiful wilderness sanctuary will be nothing short of amazing. In July the Sun Rises after five and partially sets around eleven, the Temp is about 40-60 with full sun at times, and rain highly possible too. A place like Alaska is truly a gem… It will be an amazing trip for our family. Icing on the cake, we will be visiting my Aunt who has lived in Alaska since the early 80′s. She will be the perfect compliment to our trip, as well as an experienced tour guide.
