As we sailed deeper into Glacier Bay, the scenery grew more dramatic. Towering peaks framed the bay on all sides, their slopes thick with dense forests that seemed to cling precariously to the steep mountainsides. Waterfalls cascaded down in thin ribbons, fed by the melting ice above. The water was a deep, almost mysterious shade of green, reflecting the clouds overhead. The air was crisp, with just a hint of salt carried on the breeze.
It was like a twelve-hour personal tour of one spectacular view after another. The captain made announcements over the PA system, providing a gentle narration of the day's journey, pointing out notable features, and giving us a heads-up when we were approaching the glaciers themselves.
