I just went on an Alaskan Cruise which brought us to Dawes Glacier. I always wondered what the glacier looked like up front. Surprisingly, it’s not white, or surrounded by water. Instead, it was nestled in this cove. It had beautiful blue crystal. I have a close up of a small piece that had broken off.

There were two tour boats following us, special excursion to bring people closer to the glacier. We saw some harbor seals, but I wasn’t quick enough to get a photo. Also, some people saw whales, I saw their spouts, but did not see their tails as they dove in, darn.

Alaska is beautiful, full of outdoor activities.

The most amazing part — BREATHING FRESH AIR! Really wonderful.
