Dig the photo: Jason Hoover really captures the spirit of Seattle, huh? Listen to the podcast of our weekly radio show on KUDO 1080 AM in Anchorage (NOTE: DEAD AIR for first 2:45). We interviewed Michael Rogers with Seattle Food Tours about his walking tours through Pike Place Market. Also, in the studio, Jen Aist talks with Erin Kirkland about taking young kids hiking and camping all year long!
I’m a big fan of Avis here in Alaska. I’ve rented from them in Kodiak, Kenai, Fairbanks, Juneau, Sitka–all over. Except Petersburg. Still haven’t gotten down there.
But this spring, I went ahead and bought one of their cars. A nice, red, 2007 Toyota Camry (above). This fall, they’ve got a good portion of their fleet for sale, including their H-O-T anniversary cars–Camaros, Bugs and Minis. Check ‘em out.
In Anchorage:
2010 VW Beetle: Wow factor, including flower vase on the dash. Low miles. $19, 475.
2010 Mini Cooper: Super-low miles. FUN! $22,685
2010 Camaro: Only 5K miles: $28, 675. Wow!
Special car sales in Fairbanks, Kodiak, Juneau, Sitka..and here in Anchorage.
Here are some of my favorites:
2009 Toyota Corolla (blue): 37,600 mi. $13,690
2009 Toyota Camry (white): 37,000 mi. $15,790

That’s right. Pam Mandel, travel blogger extraordinaire, is in Alaska this week taking in the highlights. Kennicott. Kantishna. The Anchorage Museum. The Alaska Railroad. So–where else could I take her aside from Alaska’s culinary peak?
That’s right: Moose’s Tooth Pizza and Brewpub. HA! Check out her travel blog, Nerdseyeview.com . A passport. A camera. A ukelele. (Uh-huh…right). And now…a beer! Photos: Above, hoisting the first of several “tasters” in our “beer flight” at Moose’s Tooth. Right: The Anchorage Hilton is a two-bear hotel!
