We cruised through Glacier Bay National Park on both cruises. It was just as beautiful and awesome the second time.


This is Lamplugh Glacier in the John Hopkins Inlet of Glacier Bay.




















Check out the waterfalls inside the tunnel.




















This is entering Tarr Inlet. You can see Margerie Glacier on the left and Grand Pacific Glacier (the black one) on the right. The black coloring is the rocks and "rock flour" carried along by the ice.








































We got to see the ice calving, huge chucks of the glacier falling into the water. The sound of cracking preceded the ice breaking away. The sound was incredible.
