My family and I don’t like going to the beach. We get bored there, so last summer we went to Alaska for our holidays. Alaska is the biggest state of the USA and one of the last wild places on Earth. It has volcanoes and mountains, rivers, thousands of islands and more than three million lakes! It’s never very hot there, but the days are long in July and it gets dark late.

We went to Juneau, the capital of Alaska, by plane. There, we joined a group of three other families and two guides. We travelled around the country in caravans, and we camped in a different place every night. The caravans had beds and bathrooms and were very comfortable! At night it got cold, so we sat around the camp fire and ate our food.

We had a fantastic time. We went kayaking, fishing and hiking in the mountains. We always had a guide with us, so we didn’t get lost. The forests were full of wild animals and we saw a wolf and grizzly bears. We got tired because there were so many activities, but we loved it. The last day of our holiday was the best! We went on a boat trip and saw humpback whale
