The Chilean Fjords
As we headed south down the Chilean coast, the ship went in for a day of "scenic cruising" in the Chilean Fjords.
As you might have guessed from our clothing, while we may have flown into summer the ship had quickly brought us back to more winter-like conditions.
There's not really too much to say about it, except that it is beautiful.
Incredibly beautiful.
Staggeringly beautiful.
See all the chucks of ice that have fallen off the glacier? I actually heard a glacier calve while we were passing. (It sounds kind of like creeeeeak, splash!)
Did I mention that it was beautiful?
The "highlight" of this section was the Amalia Glacier. Um, it was beautiful too.
Peter and I found the best seats in the house to enjoy the view. I'm not sure what it is about the sub-zero temperatures that scared off the rest of the passengers. The water was toasty, and the views couldn't be beat.
A truly fabulous day.

ReplyDeleteOMG! That is beyond beautiful. WOW! That second picture of Soren is one of my favorites ever. Great idea to see all this from the HT!!!!
ReplyDeleteWow, so awesome! Did passing all those glaciers ever make you nervous like the ship would hit a big one they couldn't see or something? Fantastic pictures!
