One of my absolute FAVORITE things is to travel. I love to see different parts of the world, and see how other people live! Unfortunately, I haven't gotten to travel nearly as much as our SHOOTSAC™ Lens Bag has.
Our friend Lindsay Weidenhammer recently took a trip all the way to ALASKA! Here's what Lindsay has to say:
My fiance Mike and I were both stationed in Ohio last year for the AIr Force. When we found he was going to be transferred to an Air Force base in North Pole, Alaska, I knew that I would have to stay in Ohio for a couple more years.
Now, even though we're separated by 4000 miles and 4 time zones, it gave me an awesome reason to visit him on my spring break last week.
North Pole, Alaska is the home of the "official" Santa Claus, and it's a town that claims to celebrate Christmas all year long. In fact, they have candy cane colored light posts everywhere! Additionally, all letters written to "Santa Claus" end up in North Pole, Alaska.
Since Alaska has beautiful scenery (and also because I feel naked without my camera), I wanted to bring some gear along for the trip. But, I didn't want to lug my heavy duty wedding gear bags around in the airport, since that would be equipment overkill. So, I stuck one camera body, a 50 mm lens and 85 mm lens in my SHOOTSAC, and boarded the plane.
While on the trip, I not only got to see the amazing landscape (photo 2), Mike and I visited the Ice Sculpting championships (photo 1), which can be found here: icealaska.com.
Lindsay, thanks for taking us on your trip with you!! |
