It’s Day Four of our Alaska Cruise: Hubbard Glacier
We arrived around noon and the excursion boat came by to pick up passengers that paid for a closer look around.
We arrived at Hubbard Glacier today and the ship took us pretty close to all the action.
The bow (front of the ship) was open for viewing.
The kids loved the open space and took full advantage of it.
It was hard for them to see the glacier but they had fun taking photos of each other.
They also served Dutch pea soup, which Janie really liked and finished a whole bowl!
This is a time lapse that was taken on the boat by the photographers on board. You can see the kids running around toward the bottom right.
Here is some of the ice breaking off the glacier and falling into the water.
It’s hard to see in this photo but there’s a bear on the shore (the brown speck to the left of the boat).
We also passed a group of harbor seals lounging on an iceberg.
In the evening, we had dinner in the Dining Room again and Peanut enjoyed the pineapple sherbet.
Here’s our towel animal for the evening!
The kids also had a late night in the game room. Janie learned how to play Battleship and the littles “helped out”.
