Day Six - Glacier Bay
My favorite photo of Glacier Bay. Touch up courtesy of B.
Happy if somewhat chilly Mariners!
There is nothing quite like slowly sailing up a long inlet in anticipation of reaching a massive glacier once you reach the "end of the road". The Marjorie Glacier is beautiful and fascinatingly interesting as you study the many layers and pinnacles that form the toe of the glacier. Our ship pulled in close enough and stayed long enough to spend time on the bow of the ship admiring what no human hand could ever create!
This picture is courtesy of Cor and Joanne and shows the entire span of the glacier. Of course we pulled in much closer than it appears in this photo. It almost felt like you could reach out and possibly stretch to touch it. Maybe that's just from holding binoculars up to my eyes for so long! Perspective became lost! I liked my view actually!
One Bird!
