A few years ago my grandparents drove to Alaska for a vacation. When my mom told me, I asked if she meant they had their car put on a boat so they would have it in Alaska... We both figured out eventually that I had no clue Alaska is attached to Cananda since throughout my early education Alaska is in the corner of the map with Hawaii, floating around in the Pacific. I almost died when I found out, and my mom nearly died when she found out I had just found out!!! I was in my early twenties and in college. Scary, huh?!?!
