On our return cruise, we went back to Glacier Bay National park and viewed the same glaciers. We got to go in a little closer this time. And we got to watch the glacier calf, which was so fun. We also saw a bear on the shore. It was a much sunnier day than when we were there a few days earlier.

| We got to see this glacier calf. That means a big chunk of it falls off and splashes in the water. See, it's white, and then to the right it is black. A big piece in the black part, just to the right of the white part fell off while we were watching. |

| You can see other chunks that have fallen. |

| Again, rangers came aboard and did commentary over the loudspeakers and television. Ken went down to talk to one of the rangers, a bird expert, about a flock of birds he saw with some erratic behavior. The ranger knew exactly what it was. It was a common loon. I took a picture from our balcony as they visited. |
We were so glad we got to go back to this beautiful place. It was a different experience the second time.
