Both States will be very cold at that time of year. But, the King is use to cold, I imagine.

Don't believe the hype. I live in Juneau, AK and yesterday it was a nice 81 yesterday and 69 today. It was a lovely afternoon cooking out on the bay.

Based on the itinerary the King will spend a majority of his time in Anchorage, and the weather is going to between 55 to 61.

That is an awesome picture. I really like Harald. It's great to see him meet the Hansen brothers from the Northwestern ship spotlighted on Discover Channel's Deadliest Catch show.
