I am planning on running a marathon in Anchorage in June 2018. My wife, 4 year old (then) and both sets of grandparents would be going. My plan is to get in late Thursday, relax/see the town Friday and then run the race on Saturday.
On the Tuesday after, the plan is to join a land and sea cruise with Princess. The land part of the tour takes us up into Denali for a couple nights, staying in the park before heading to the port for a 7 day cruise.
My question would be, what should we do between Saturday afternoon through Tuesday afternoon? It looks like Kenai Fjords National Park is driveable for a day trip. Would it possibly be worth a stay overnight down there?
Anything else that isn't Denali that we should do around Anchorage?
