What a beautiful day. We were up on deck early as a ranger came on board to talk with us about what we were seeing. The glaciers were amazing. Marjorie is 1 mile wide and 250 feet high. The glacier runoff makes for good reflections. It was silent on the ship as we were in awe. I lay on our balcony with the sun shining on my face, listened to the sea lap against the boat and felt the breeze. It was peaceful with the fresh smells. There were humpbacks and harbor seals playing in the area.
The ship provided Taste of Alaska on deck. I had reindeer chili, octopus, salmon, dried fish, crabcakes and salad. It was all good. In the evening our travel agency treated our group to dinner at the Italian specialty restaurant. It was very nice of them to gather us together and we had a good time, including the lobster dinner. The evening show was a dance group that was good. The costumes and staging of the shows has been great.
I heard taps played sometime during the day which reminded me to take a breath and thank those who have passed for all they have left us.
