Decided to take the dogs to the park and then head for the Alaska Native Heritage Center. We had been told that it was well worth our time and it was. We had a great time wandering around the outside exhibits; which were native homes adapted to life in the wilds of Alaska in the regions they called home. The native groups were divided into 5 main groups and each with a distinctive life style. Displays included native dress, arts, weapons, homes, and dance. Inside they had a central common area where they did talks about lifestyle, arts, history and the like. There was a theater showing films on the half hour. I think we spent 4 hours or more there. I would like to say that we got more done BUT somehow a nap got in the way.
