This morning we arrived at Tracy Arm, but were unable to venture into it due to the fog. So, we just enjoyed a slow breakfast and relaxed on the ship for the morning.

By lunchtime the ship had sailed to Endicott Arm, which we were able to enter. After lunch, we hopped into a Zodiac to head out and explore the Endicott Arm area.

We had a wonderful couple of hours in the Zodiac, marvelling at the sizes of the glacier and enjoying the abundant wildlife in the area.

We got back to the ship late in the afternoon, with a little bit of time to relax before dinner. After dinner, we took in a beautiful late-evening sunset from our balcony.

Tomorrow we’ll be docking in Haines, where we’ll be spending time on a photography tour, which should be fun.
