    We've made you a pictorial of vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin's hometown, complete with funny captions (and with help from National Geographic's guide.) First stop on the tour: Palin's church. Some people hate going to church because it's somber and boring—but not this church! You can sing, dance, thump your chest, and make a joyful noise to incredibly dorky music. You don't have to "dress up," either. Click through for dogs, bears, glaciers, and the local resort.

This is an eagle. They have them in Alaska. Not-coincidentally, the eagle is our national bird, and also a symbol of the War on Terror.
