Photo of the Day: Calving Glacier, Alaska

by Beth (January 9th, 2009)

Given all the water and flooding we’ve been dealing with here in the Pacific Northwest, I thought this was a fitting photo for DeliciousBaby’s photo Friday…

Keep dry, folks!

Travel Well!

Great shot.

We loved visiting the calving glaciers in a smaller boat…got close enough for a couple of pretty exciting moments!

What did it sound like? Spectacular. I have never seen anything like this, but as a teenager would go to Niagara Falls to watch the chucks of ice from the thawing river go over the falls.

Pretty colors! I found similarities between Norway and Alaska this year as we explored the fjords. That surprised me some how.
