Day 6 – Glacier Bay – Yesterday we went here, its basically an inlet with a number of glaciers on either side. We got to within a quarter of a mile of John Hopkins’ Glacier. On the way out we spent 3 hours on deck watching for whales and managed a couple of small sightings. Kathryn got a better view than me as I was stuck behind the camera. Definetely got a flipper in one picture though. Kathryn did get a good picture of some seals surfacing.
We had some great weather, the naturalist on board said its the best weather that Glacier Bay has seen all summer.
These pictures of Glacier Bay and fantastic. I find File 11 and 83 particularly relaxing. The dogs are cute too. No way would I have done that rope abseil though!
Dramatic photos and these snaps are very calming to look at. Although the abseiling drama soon changed my calmness, no way could I do it!
