Day at Sea: Glacier Bay National Park June 6, 2026

This day we stayed on the ship for the entire sightseeing experience.  The National Park Ranger boarded our ship and did talks throughout the day. We viewed Glacier Bay from our balconies…perfect spot for taking special photos.  We could hear the Park Rangers over the TVs in our rooms…except when there was technical difficulties which did happen and we missed quite a bit of the talk. I am going to post some of the pictures and may post more at another time and tell more about the National Park itself.


This is Gloomy Knob…home to mountain goats. Can you see them? Next I will post a photo that shows a nanny and her kid that I cropped so you can see more clearly…but since it is a crop it isn’t the sharpest photo.


A piece of ice floating that broke off a glacier.  The dark place on this one is a sea otter hiding.


Sea otters waving at us as we sailed past!


In the above photo, it is not ice coming towards the water, but rock that has been broken up due to glacier activity over the years.  There is a name for it, but at the moment I can't remember what it is called.



To be continued! Be safe! Be well! Be cautious!
