We were pleasantly surprised to see Bollywood dance on "So you think you can dance". The performance was amazing. I also noticed "Bollywood Dance" keyword shot up to top 100 searches on Google. You can see the search traffic spike around 6PM PT

Highly recommended restaurant in Anchorage

Our quest for good vegetarian food took us to moose's tooth
restaurant. It's highly recommended by the local paper (discovered it
on www.Mahalo.com). The lone carnivore in our group thought the meat
items were good too.

The pizza we had was delicious.

They are one of the fastest sea mammals. Around 25 miles/hour at short
distances. One of the dolphins is seen following the boat. Once the
boat sped up, they couldn't keep up and gave up the chase.

Humpback whale

Humpback whales feed and breed in Alaska during summer and migrate to
Hawaii or California or Baja during winter. They don't get much food
in Hawaii so their aim is to become as fat as possible in Alaska.

Orcas or killer whales

The orca is the largest member of the dolphin family. There are three
types of orcas - resident , transient and offshore. All orcas hunt by
echo location. Resident orcas eat only fish while transient orcas hunt
other mammals.
