Canada, Alaska, North America, Mexico, Bahamas, Spain 2023
The ship cruised all day on route to Skita. In so doing we passed many glaciers, varying sizes.
We thought how the water must be meters deep as our ship was sailing very close to the glaciers, on either side. It was remarkable and so beautiful. The weather was picture perfect, sunny but cold as you would expect. The water colour was crystal aqua, so beautiful and pristine.
At dinner it was still daylight and we were in front of a really large glacier. The captain ordered the ship to rotate full circle twice to ensure all passengers enjoyed this beautiful natural landscape..
