Today was a perfect day. It just doesn't get any better that this weather wise. We focussed on two Glaciers today, the Margery Glacier and the Grand Pacific Glacier. Also seeing the John Hopkins Glacier at a distances because a colony of seals is breeding at the moment so did want to disturb them. Saw the Reid Glacier and the Lamplugh Glacier as well. A breathtaking day.
