Cruising
in Glacier Bay was the whole program for Friday. We rose early,
although the sun was already up, at 4:45, to get an early breakfast,
and then headed to the Crow's Nest to take in the sights. We were
rewarded with sightings of whales taking an early morning surface
roll and blow, and pods of dolphins. We were in a fantastic position
to admire the smooth sailing up the fjord, with beautiful jagged
mountains draped in snow, and many glaciers. We saw the huge shaggy
goats, a bear ambling across the rocky beach, whales, seals, and sea
otters. This was a fabulous day and words really can't describe how special it was.
In the
evening, there was a formal dinner. The dinner show was a whale breaching right outside out window. We were invited to an Antipodean
Party to meet other Aussies and Kiwis, where I bought Martini's, which
Darryl didn't like, so I had to drink both, and then at 10pm there
was a huge special dessert extravaganza up near the pool. All sorts
of wonderful desserts were available, but I got conflicting
directions from every person I asked for the gluten & sugar-free
desserts, and may well have had something incorrect as I woke up
quite sick in the morning.
