Captain Scott's Log ~ Tuesday, September 23rd, 2008

Subject: Icebergs

After the Humpback display we returned to Jeneau. Tom and Kristin arrived
and went with Gill and Pat on a heliocopter tour of the nearby glacier.
Jeneau was shutting down for the winter--as in boarding up. Still we had 2
good days with some sunshine--very rare for Juneau. Today we left. Going
south. Our first night is in the Tracy Arm and on arrival we were greeted
by icebergs. Really, ice flows bigger than the boat and we are down stream
25 miles from the glaciers which calved them. Also new snow is on the hill
above us---our first of the season. Now snug in a cove in very good weather
(light rain) with the heaters on. Tomorrow up stream as far as the ice will
let us.
