Glacier Bay is amazing. We sailed right in (Volendam is one of the few large ships allowed) and sat in front of the Margerie Glacier for about an hour and saw three big lumps break off into the sea - calving. The glacier is advancing at 16 feet per day and the Bay is becoming quite shallow so it will be harder to see it. A strange sight is to see seals and seagulls having a free ride on the resulting ice floes. It was cold out on our balcony.
