Thanks for reading, reviewing and following
I have done a bit of research on the place they are going and all the places and things mentioned on their trip are real but I have had to use a bit of creative imagination seeing as I have only seen pictures - it almost makes me want to go myself!
The entire chapter is their trip
Sorry for the wait between chapters
Anyway Enjoy
Amy didn't see Sheldon on Monday evening as they both planned to work a little later and Howard and Raj were coming over for the evening once Sheldon had finished work but Amy had sent Sheldon a text message reminding him to pack warm clothes as it would be chilly at night time in the area they were going to.
Her original plan was for them to have a 3 night package stay at the lodge but deciding they should have longer away had booked 2 extra nights which Sheldon had also approved of and on the Monday they would check out of the lodge and drive back to Anchorage and check into the Anchorage Hilton for one night as they both wanted to go to the Alaska Zoo which was close by
On Tuesday Amy picked up Sheldon from work and they went for a meal at their favourite Chinese restaurant then returned to the apartment chatting about their trip
'Sheldon how would you feel like going on a helicopter ride while we are there? We can see some spectacular views'
'Well I'm not a fan of flying at the best of times, so I'm not sure, maybe we can see when we get there'
'Sure, we will have some downtime in the afternoon when we arrive before the morning train journey through the park, so we can find something to do then also'
'How long will it take from the airport?'
'A couple hours at least, I have organised a hire car, we could have got a taxi but I would rather drive'
'Ok I have to finish packing if you like you can come and help, I don't have much left to do though'
They walked to bedroom and Amy saw that Sheldon had finished as he had two bags packed full of stuff still open on the floor
'That was a ruse Amy, I wanted to spend a little time with you in here before I have to finish'
'Oh? What would you like to do' asked Amy flirting with Sheldon as she leaned into him and stroked his belly and Sheldon groaned at her touch
Sheldon kissed her hard on the lips and parted her mouth with his tongue, they moved to the bed still kissing and Sheldon pulled Amy closer to him, she could feel his arousal pressing against her and they were both grinding against each other on the bed
Later on
'You know Amy I am going to repeat myself here but all those years I was avoiding this kind of thing and really don't know why!'
'Well I think we can safely say you are making up for lost time' laughed Amy as they kissed each other again and she helped Sheldon finish what little he had left to pack
The next day
They arrived at Anchorage airport at midday to mildly warm weather though a bit windy, Amy went to the car hire stand, collected the keys and was directed to the car park to pick up the car
'Sheldon if you want to sleep when I'm driving that's ok, I know we didn't get much last night' said Amy to Sheldon as she started the car up
'Amy I think I might do that but not for long, I don't want to be rude'
'You could never be rude Sheldon' as she leaned over to kiss him
The drive to the park took around 2 hours to get there and they had a fantastic view of the park as they arrived, with Glacier Mountains everywhere and then they saw the lodge in the distance as they drove up through the park entrance.
Amy was surprised
'Wow Sheldon I could see how great it looked from the pictures but to be here it's just stunning!
'I agree but I think we will be saying that a lot here, the whole area is magnificent'
Amy parked her car and they walked inside the lodge to the reception area and checked in
'Welcome to the Denali Princess Wilderness Lodge' said the receptionist 'Here are your room keys and we hope you enjoy your stay with us, if you would like to wait a moment while I call a porter he can take your to your room, also if you wish to use the hot tubs you can book from reception and we can ensure you have a private one for yourselves only'
'Thank you' replied Sheldon and Amy together
The porter took them to their room which was a deluxe suite with a king size bed, en suite and a small balcony with table and chairs overlooking the river, mountains and park
'Amy thank you for bringing me here, this is just fantastic scenery' said Sheldon
'You are more than welcome Sheldon, are you hungry? Because I know I am'
They looked at the lodge guide that had been provided and decided they would have room service and rang down to reception to organise it
Within minutes their food was up and they were sat on the balcony enjoying the view and discussing the plans for the trip
'Amy after hearing about that hot tub shall we book one for tomorrow after the train trip?
'Of course and after we have eaten we can go for a walk around the area and walk down by the Nenana river, I have also booked an official tour for Friday but we can still go and explore on our own briefly'
'I can't think of anything better' said Sheldon as he smiled warmly at Amy
'There is one other thing that I have booked on Saturday but I'm not going to tell you until we get there as I want it to be a surprise'
'Oh Amy you know I don't like surprises'
'Don't worry this one is a nice one' Amy was being deliberately evasive and she hoped Sheldon did enjoy it
They finished their meals and brought the plates back inside ready to be collected and Amy was feeling frisky
'You know Sheldon we haven't tested the bed yet would you like to join me? Amy got on the bed and tried to pose in a seductive position but it worked and Sheldon joined her
'You know Amy the bed is beautiful but you are even more so'
'Sheldon Cooper that is one corny line but I love it' said Amy 'now let me kiss you'
They lay on the bed on their sides with the arms and legs wrapped round each other gently kissing and caressing each other
'Come on its prevening now, we need to go for this walk before it gets too cold' Said Sheldon
They walked hand in hand to the Nenana river which was in view of the lodge and spotted some tourists white-water rafting, some more successfully than others
'Amy I hope that is not your surprise because I can tell you now, I will not be doing that! Exclaimed Sheldon
'No its not, don't worry I know that's probably not your sort of thing'
'I'm glad about that Amy because it looks very dangerous and I don't like danger as you well know'
'Well there are other things we can look at over the time we are here, I know there is an archaeological feature called The Broken Mammoth nearby which has been dated back to oldest occupation of around 12000 years, that should be interesting'
'I hope so' said Sheldon not very convincingly
'Come on lets keep walking'
As they got further down the river they got to some clearer patches of water where they could see various fish including salmon, pike and whitefish
'There are usually bears that frequent this river for the salmon but maybe they are further up' said Amy
'Well I hope you don't think I'm going that close to them' said Sheldon
'No we are not, certain areas we can't get access to anyway because of their breeding areas and the guides sensibly recommend not approaching them and that goes for all the animals here, which is good because I don't fancy being a bears dinner! Laughed Amy
'Me either' said Sheldon ' Come on lets sit down here on the bench there for a few minutes
As they approached the bench they saw some Hares scampering about in the long grass on the other side of the river
'Oh I wish I had brought my camera, they look adorable' said Amy
''Well we can come back out again another day with it' said Sheldon
'Your right' smiled Amy at Sheldon
They sat down on the bench enjoying the view and each other as Sheldon had his arm around Amy's shoulders and Amy had rested her head against Sheldon feeling very happy and contented. After about 30 minutes sitting down they talked about going back to the lodge and having dinner, though they were both happy to stay where they were
'Come on lets go back; said Sheldon as he turned Amy's head towards him and kissed her, Amy responded by caressing his face and kissing him back hungrily
'This place is just so beautiful, I wish we could stay longer and explore other areas as well' Amy signed in contentment
'Maybe in the future we could book a longer trip, there does seem like such a lot to do and I especially can't wait for the train trip tomorrow' said Sheldon
'Well I think you will enjoy that, it has private observation platforms and I have booked us one and for us to have breakfast and lunch on the train as we are going from here to Fairbanks and back again, there was the choice to pre book the breakfast and have a specific meal but also the choice to book it but choose on the day as they have different menus for each day'
'I can guess why you have booked a private area Amy and I look forward to it'
'I have no idea what you mean' said Amy winking at Sheldon
By now they had got back to the lodge, they went to their room having reserved a table in Music of Denali Dinner Theatre and changed into more formal attire, Amy had brought her blue dress and Sheldon was wearing a light blue shirt with black trousers
Amy had left the bathroom after dressing and Sheldon couldn't keep his eyes off her
'Amy I think that dress is now my favourite thing on you' said Sheldon
Amy could see his eyes were dilated and he was full of lust for her as he walked towards her, he pulled her into him, kissed her and then traced his fingers around the v-neck part of the dress, Amy was becoming very turned on at the light touch and was letting out little moans of desire
'Come on lets go to dinner, we can do more of this later and you can help me undress if you like' said Amy flirting with Sheldon
'Oh given the chance I would love to rip the dress of you but I don't want to destroy such a lovely thing'
'Look at you Sheldon, your such a horndog' laughed Amy
'Well you are the only person I could be a quote unquote horndog for' said Sheldon as he did the quote fingers in the air
They kissed again and went down to dinner
They discovered that the dinner was most unusual as it was served by actors who also entertained the guests, after a while though Sheldon had had enough of the entertainment and suggested to Amy that they leave
On the way back to their room they went into the hotel bar and purchased a bottle of white wine to share between them and took it to the balcony and sat outside chatting until it got too chilly and they went back in and lay in bed watching TV until they fell asleep tired from a long day and Sheldon excited about the train trip in the morning
The next morning they woke early and while Sheldon got ready, Amy phoned down to reception book a hot tub for when they returned later that day and then they got ready to go to the station to meet the train, Amy had her reservations with her and when the train rolled into the station Sheldon was looking on in joy
'Wow Amy look at the train, its wonderful and its double deckered, you didn't tell me that'
'I wanted to surprise you and I think its even better on board, I have booked a deck on the higher level, come on lets find our carriage'
They found their carriage and the observation deck they were booked into and Amy found to her surprise that they also had the services of a butler to themselves for the duration of the journey
Amy reached into her bag and brought our 2 pairs of binoculars that she had rented for the trip and gave one to Sheldon
'It was recommended because we will probably see some animals but because we will be constantly on the move we can see better with them'
'Good idea' said Sheldon as he kissed Amy lovingly
The train set off 10 minutes later on a steady 20 miles an hour so everybody could enjoy the view and their butler came to ask what they would like for breakfast
Having look at the menu they both went for scrambled eggs with breakfast potatoes and bacon, Sheldon was not so keen on the reindeer sausages however so chose not to have them
They were able to eat with clear views of the park as the train trundled through and they had been going for around 20 minutes when they spotted just a few yards from the railroad a pack of wolves feeding on a kill with their cubs nearby watching
'Oh Sheldon look at that aren't they beautiful animals'
'I agree but I'm glad we are up here and not down there being eaten' said Sheldon
The train continued on passing through more spectacular scenery with a guide giving commentary over the tannoy and they spotted more animals and then after an hour of constant moving the train stopped as in the distance moving towards on the railroad them was a herd of moose, one of the guides on the train managed to scare them off the track and the train continued on to the town of Fairbanks where it was scheduled to stop for 30 minutes picking up more passengers and for others to leave before it returned back to Denali
'Amy did you know that we are only 120 miles from the Arctic Circle?
'Yes I had looked it up when booking the journey'
'Well if I ever get to go again for work purposes I hope I have better results' said Sheldon remembering the mess that happened before
'Yes I heard about that from Penny a few months after first meeting her'
Sheldon just shrugged his shoulders, in truth he was over what happened and didn't care that much about it anymore
The return journey was as enjoyable as the journey out with them seeing different animals from time to time and they also had lunch but chose to have something small to eat so went with Chicken and Salad
They returned back to Denali at around 2pm and went to their room to change into their outfits for the hot tub
When they got to the hot tubs, it was an outside area with each tub surrounded by a small privacy wall with a complimentary bottle of champagne, they were the only couple there though
Sheldon hadn't seen Amy's bikini when she had got changed in their room as she had wrapped in a robe but as she took it off, he couldn't believe his eyes, it was more of her than he had ever seen including from when she was wearing her sexy lingerie
'Amy you-you look stunning' Sheldon was having trouble breathing and talking at the same time
'Thank you Sheldon I was hoping you would like it'
'Oh I more than like it' Sheldon was roving his eyes up and down her body and pulled her to him kissing her and unable to stop his hands wandering over her
'Come on lets get in' said Amy taking Sheldon's hand and leading him down the step into the warm bubbly water
Once they were settled Amy reached for the champagne and gave Sheldon a glass which he downed in one
'Steady there!' said Amy
'Sorry, I'm just feeling a little nervous and I have this urge to have coitus with you right now but I know its not the right time yet'
'Sheldon I'm not going to put pressure on you about that, I told you already'
'I know but I am feeling the pressure from myself and I want to do more than just kiss and cuddle you'
''Oh come sit closer to me and we can cuddle, I am happy to wait until you are ready and I think we both get a lot of pleasure from the kissing and cuddling we do'
'Thank you Amy, I love you very much for waiting'
'Hoo' said Amy 'Sheldon you are more than worth the wait and I love you very much'
They continued to drink champagne and cuddle in the tub though by now Sheldon had pulled Amy closer to him so she had wrapped her legs round his and they were gently kissing and rocking against each other in the tub, the only sound you could hear was the soft moans of lust coming from them both
The next day
Amy had booked Sheldon and herself onto a bus tour of the park, this time going in a different direction to the day before and it wasn't long before they had reached the other end of the Nenana River when they saw their first grizzly bears in the river catching Salmon and fighting each other for the best space in the water
The guide on board had said certain areas of Alaska had black bears which were not human aggressive and you could get within feet of them to take pictures, though they were more likely to be seen in small towns not big parks
Later on in the day when they returned Amy had gone back to their room and Sheldon had gone to one of the restaurants and requested sandwiches and drinks to be made as he wanted to take Amy back to their bench for a little picnic, he had also got a little blanket as well
He went back to the room to collect Amy
'Amy come on lets go for a walk'
'What's that you have there? Noticed Amy
'I wanted to thank you for the wonderful train journey yesterday so I have arranged for some food and we are having a little picnic by the river'
'Oh Sheldon, you didn't have to do that, it's very nice'
'You are worth it Amy' said Sheldon as he kissed her briefly, he picked up his camera and they left the room and walked down to their spot by the river
Sheldon laid out the blanket and set out the food and drink and they watched more tourists who were white water rafting
'You know I'm still not convinced about the safety of all that Amy'
'I know but they are safe to a point I guess, anyway lets enjoy the rest of the afternoon shall we' Amy smiled at Sheldon and they gazed into each others eyes for a moment before they heard a noise in the grass behind them
They both looked and found a hare was sitting just a few feet away licking and cleaning its paws
'It's so cute' whispered Amy
The hare though heard Amy looked up and came slightly closer before tearing off back into the long grass, Sheldon though had managed to take a picture of it very discreetly
'Amy are you going to tell me your secret plan for tomorrow'
'Nope, I told you it's a surprise, but we will be leaving at 9am and the excursion will take around 3 hours, that's all will say for now'
'Well I trust that it's not something dangerous!
'You are correct' laughed Amy
'You know I rather enjoyed the hot tub yesterday maybe we could do it again later' asked Sheldon
'I will agree to that; said Amy
They stayed there for a couple of hours enjoying the scenery and each other until it was time to go back to the hotel, they found though that all the hot tubs were booked for the rest of the evening and instead booked one for the next day
Saturday morning
Amy and Sheldon had ordered room service and they were waiting for it to arrive so were laying in bed cuddling and kissing
'Sheldon I will tell you now what I have planned and I hope you like it, we have to drive a little way to get there though'
'Ok what is it?
'Well are going to a camp where the hosts are Alaskans that make a living out of the park and whom also organise Dog Cart Rides, that take us up Mount McKinley'
'A dog cart ride? Amy really I'm not a fan of dogs'
'Sheldon its ok we won't be near the dogs we will be in a special cart, a little bit like how the pope is carried around so the people can see him and its very safe'
'Amy I trust you so I will agree to this as long as I don't need to pet the dogs or anything'
'I think that's optional so don't worry' said Amy kissing him
Just then room service arrived so they had breakfast and got ready to go
Sheldon to his surprise found that the dog cart ride was fun, though a little bit bumpy and they were able to stop at points to take pictures, the dogs though were perfectly safe and at the stop points were let off the harness to wander around and one wandered up to where Sheldon and Amy were standing, sniffing Sheldon's leg
'Oh Amy get it away from me'
'Sheldon its fine look' Amy bent down to the dog and put her hand out and the dog sniffed it and let Amy pat him
'I'm not touching him Amy'
'I'm not going to make you Sheldon, don't worry he's very sweet though' the dog had now rolled over on his back and was letting Amy rub his belly.
A few minutes later the leader of the cart called the dogs back to the cart and they got back on the journey climbing higher up the mountain
Later on they returned and went back to the hot tub again and then had dinner,
On Sunday Amy had booked for them to go on a quad bike adventure in the north of the park, they had to have safety lessons first though, Sheldon and Amy had a bike each with Sheldon in the middle as the there was a guide leading them and Amy at the back, the guide led them to a dried up riverbed where they were able to ride around and they found an abandoned cabin which had been destroyed inside by bears looking for food, again the views were spectacular.
On Monday morning they checked out of the lodge and drove back to Anchorage, then checked into the Hilton for the night and went to explore Alaska Zoo which mainly housed animals of the arctic which had been abandoned by their mothers or injured in the wild and also animals that had lived in private houses which meant there was definitely no Monkeys or Koalas which Sheldon and Amy didn't mind
They enjoyed the Zoo and stayed until closing time and as they were driving back to the hotel were talking about the trip
'Say Amy I wonder if when we come here again we should ask the others in our group to come because I think they would all enjoy it, there is so much to do'
'I agree and next time we will definitely come for a lot longer, I feel we had to rush a lot of things, so I hope you had a good time though'
'Amy! Of course I had a good time, you brought me here to this fantastic place and I enjoyed every minute of it, especially in the hot tub with you' said Sheldon
'Hmm I wonder if they have one at the hotel'
'I hope so because I especially liked you in that bikini!
'Yes I did notice and also I never said at the time how you have a very fine body, it something I should see more of' laughed Amy
'Well I won't stop you once we are in the hot tub' said Sheldon
When they got back to the hotel they found there wasn't any hot tubs though there was a swimming pool but Sheldon didn't want to go swimming so they went to their room.
'Sheldon you know we have a Jacuzzi bath in our en suite, we could go in that together, it's similar to a hot tub'
'Will you wear your bikini again? Asked Sheldon
'Yes of course as long as you wear your sexy shorts again'
They quickly got changed and stepped into the Jacuzzi
'The perfect way to end a lovely trip' said Amy
'Amy I have to agree and thank you again for bringing me, this is even better than when we went to Wisconsin! Said Sheldon
'Well I'm about to make it even better now' said Amy as she pulled Sheldon close to her and kissed him
Thanks for reading
The next couple of chapters will be along in quick succession either today or tomorrow and they will be worth waiting for as I have some surprises lined up
