Cruising Glacier Bay

Friday was a big day for us in Skagway.  Everyone was beginning to get tired.  We agreed to meet for breakfast at 9 on Saturday.  (This was sleeping in.)  This actually allowed me to get a good workout in before breakfast and the beauty of that was we were cruising Glacier Bay all day so the views were spectacular while I worked out.  Can't quite get this view in GJ.

The Park Rangers had boarded the ship and were available to chat with from 7am to noon. From 9 to noon, the Park Rangers provided commentary over the PA system.  After breakfast, we found a place outside to take in the views.  We passed Drake Island and Russell Island and saw Johns Hopkins Glacier and Jaw Point (because your jaw will drop when you see the view.)

There are many more photos, but that gives you a representation.  We were told over and over that we had beautiful weather.  The cruise the previous week had rain.

Jessica snagged a prime spot at the front of the ship and was able to get some of those awesome pictures. It was very windy, but worth it.

This next photo is just for fun.  If you've been reading the blog you might get a laugh out of this.
