Alaska is perhaps the most amazing state in the USA. It has coastlines facing both the
Arctic Ocean and the Pacific Ocean. This state has an incredible three million lakes. That’s
four lakes per person living there.

Many cities in Alaska cannot be reached by road, sea, or river. The only way to get in and
out is by air, on foot, or by dogsled. That’s why Alaska has the busiest sea airport in the
world, Lake Hood Seaplane Base. Nearly two hundred float planes take off and land on the
water of this airport every day. It is a really fun scene to watch.

Alaska is called the land of Midnight Sun because in summer, the sun does not set for nearly
three months. But in winter the sun stays almost unseen. All Alaskans take special pride in
their beautiful and unique state.
