Glacier Bay

We spent a day on this fairly large sized boat going into Glacier Bay. We visited three glaciers, saw sea lions, bears, eagles, puffins, and great scenery.

This is an island that had a lot of birds flying on it. It was very fun to watch the puffins.

A great photo that lila took of the marjorie glacier. It was the largest of the three glaciers we visted. While we were looking at it, small parts of it were calving off. You could hear the ice cracking. Overall, it was really impressive.

Some sea lions we saw early on during the boat trip. Can you spot the bull?

Some people were nice enough to offer to take a picture of me and lila. We were really lucky to have blue skys the whole day.

A final view of the majorie glacier was we sailed away from it.

Glacier Bay was one of the most impressive places I've ever seen. Although the trip was a little touristy and kitchy, it was amazing.
