A few weeks home now and going through our photos it's hard to believe just how much we managed to do in just 11 days! The wildlife viewing opportunities on this trip were astonishing and whenever there was something to be seen, the captain and crew made sure the passengers got to experience it as best as they possibly could. We spent hours slowly cruising behind whales, circling icebergs with seals on them, drifting past sea lion colonies, and nudging up to cliff faces for a closer look at mountain goats. On the excursions in the DIB, we would position the boat to get the best shots of eagles, bears, seals and other Birdlife as well as the amazing scenery around us that we almost seemed to take for granted on a daily basis. It is only looking back on our photos we appreciate how magnificent it all was at the time.
