life of a cruise ship nurse: deja vu week 2 at glacier bay

and we are off for our 2nd week aboard the oosterdam. since i was on 3rd call today, i spent the day taking pics of seattle and myself...

going, going

almost gone

we are about to meet the captain at his coctail party. as officers of the ship, we get invited to come and meet some of the passengers. i had a great time

i am in the officers bar. we are cruising in glacier bay and i had to come inside to get warm.

robyn and i. i was teaching her the fine art of the self portrait

bald eagle perched on an iceberg

it was putting on a show for us today




i wanted it to fly away so i could get some shots of it in flight, but it just wanted to watch us as we sailed by

reid glacier

seals sunbathing on the ice in the water. there is way more ice this week than last.......global warming?  hmmmm.

first views of the marjorie glacier

when the ice falls it is called calving. it makes a very loud thunderous sound as it falls

passengers taking pics of the glacier

i call this guy's camara 'tiny'. i thought it was so funny that he had this tiny camara with a huge lens.
