    I spent 1 week in Juneau! Our tour guide told us his girlfriend came to Alaska to meet men. There are 10 men for every woman in Alaska ! She told him "The odds are good, but the goods are odd"! 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣

    David, you may never see this, but I Love You. I read the Diaries and weep (really) I read Holidays On Ice and peed my pants, I read how you grew up in France and Italy and thought 'this is a boy any mother could love and be proud of' I think you're amazing. Because you took some seeds (the artist, the writer/poet) and made them grow and kept faith in yourself. At some point it was all too much for me and I broke apart, so I am so proud of you for going on and on...if anyone doubts the pain and difficiutlies, read David's Diaries, you will learn what it means to be a literary hero in this generation. Love you Mr. Sedaris.

    Aw yes, I have been to parts of Alaska. From Nome, Anchorage, and Fairbanks just to name a few. It is truly a place where neighbors rely on each other. The trust that is given is truly received and returned.

    This segment was so strange. My wife and I are at 1 week isolation for covid. We were told she tested positive prior to getting on the cruise portion of our trip to Alaska, in Skagway. We were told we would need to go home vs getting on the cruise. After an 8 hour ferry ride, which was parked right next to the cruise ship and 18 hours (4 flights) later, we are home.

      This video is a lie. I subscribe to several Alaska homestead videos. They prove that Sedaris is a liar.

    Just returned from Alaska. I also brought Covid home with me. We were on a small ship inner passage (SE Alaska tour). Love the reference to Juneau. It was rainy and cold there - not my favorite city.

      So you booked a trip to Alaska and did not like the cold wet WX. That’s kinda like booking a trip to the moon and then bitching about the lack of gravity. Sorry you caught Covid.
