Thank goodness the sea was calmer today as we were mainly in inlets in Glacier Bay! I was feeling much better and was looking forward to meeting the Park Rangers and Alaskan native who came on board to tell us about the area.
The most amazing place was John Hopkins Glacier...check out the pictures.
As I spent most of the day on the outside / viewing decks I met many other passengers including a heap from Australia....even a couple of people from New Zealand! Many of the other passengers could not distinguish a difference between the Australian accent and the NZ accent - but I kept reminding them they just needed to ask us all to say the number 6!
Lots of fun on the decks today including continual refills of the 'Eskimo Kiss'....hot cholocate with a little something added, pea soup on all decks + the very special 'Polar Bear Jump'........quite a large group of people took up the challenge and put on their bathers and then chanted an Alaskan ritual and then women the men jumped into the outdoor swimming pool - now you all know I DO NOT like cold water so I gave this a miss BUT I have been in the hot tubs on the Lido deck twice so far.
Each night when I came back to my cabin my cheeky cabin steward 'Eddy' would have made a different character from towels....check out this really cute creation!
They ran lessons on the last day teaching the passengers how to make these from towels...but I was too busy to attend! It will remain a mystery to me......
