We took a 7 hour scenic cruise out to Columbia Glacier in Prince William Sound today. The weather was perfect and it was an awesome trip! There are waterfalls galore along the shorelines and we finally saw some wildlife - otters, sea lions, whales, eagles and puffins. It was a long ride but the captain was a good narrator, the water was smooth, the sun was shining and the glacier was stunning!

| Icebergs around the glacier |
 |
| They look like ice sculptures! |
 |
| Up close to the glacier - we saw big chunks of ice "calf" twice! |
 |
| You get an idea of the size of the ice when compared to this fishing boat |
 |
| We saw a whale 3 times - hard to get a picture |
 |
| The color of the icebergs are beautiful |
 |
| Sea lions getting a tan! |
 |
| Salmon fishing boat - it is highly regulated by the Alaska Fish and Game |

| Awesome! |
