Spectacular light and ice

Well, we were unlucky last year when we sailed up Doubtful Sound and Milford Sound in NZ: it rained and rained, we didn’t see anything of Doubtful, but we did see the waterfalls in Milford.

Not unlucky this time! Crystal clear viewing all up the Tracey Arm to the Jarvis glacier. Bright blue icebergs, sun coming over the mountains, and the ship being put through 360s so we could all see the glacier. On this trip last week, they had fog, mist and low clouds, so it’s our turn for good views!

All that happened before 9 am this morning, so we’ve now had breakfast and coffees, and we’re seated on our balcony, rugs on our legs, watching more beautiful scenery slide by as we sail to Juneau.Read more
