Ok, today was another great day... even if it did start with another waterfall. For some reason they decide we need to view a waterfall from both the top and the bottom so they build a staircase to climb and Brad's philosophy is we have come all this way so we are going to see what is up there. So 407 steps later (I know, because I counted them), we arrived at the top and there was another pretty waterfall so it was probably worth it.

We drove to to an area with bird nesting cliffs, hoping to see some puffins and to our delight we saw lots. Really cute fat bodied birds with short little wings that flap really fast when they are flying. They must get exhausted.... perhaps that is why they are called puffins...hahaha!

We skipped driving to see glaciers as we have already seen them before and moved onto a glacier lagoon - fantastic sight! Great icebergs floating in a lake and there were even seals swimming around. This capped off another great day.Lue lisää
