Today was a cruising day which took us to Hubbard glacier. What a beautiful site!! The captain took us amazingly close and turned the ship all around for a great view.
Hubbard Glacier is the largest tidewater glacier in North America. It extends 76 miles from Mt. Logan in Yukon Territory. The face is more than 6 miles across and 300 ft high with the most beautiful blue ice. We watched from our balconies and could hear the continual thunder of the ice shifting and moving. The ship crew took a chunk of ice from the water that will be carved into a sculpture. Amazing to have a chunk of ice from 400 year old snow.
Tonight was formal night on the ship so it was a fun night at dinner. The food has been fabulous and we all think we're coming home with extra weight! The entertainment has been great these first two nights on the ship. We're enjoying the comforts of the ship and it doesn't take long to get spoiled.
