Alaska Trip: Day Ten, Glacier Point

081515
Saturday
10:00 am

We are taken to the cruise ship docks to rendezvous with our Glacier Point Wilderness Safari boat.


 

Yes, please.

We arrive at Glacier National Park, have a quick sammie lunch, then on to the trail head.


We get a life jacket & sturdy wellies.


Uh-oh, it looks a lot farther away than expected...


Getting closer...

 

This may look close, but those trees in the middle are an island!


Are we there yet?!?
 

Even closer!


We landed! The earlier group informed us that they had been on a walk on the moon.


We are beginning to understand what they meant...









Now we walk back.
ALL the way back...
(can you see those teeny tiny people way back there?)


Another glorious sunny day, skimming across the water...
waving at some harbor seals enjoying it, too.


(This one looks like a torpedo that washed up!)


Ready to start our first cruise...


Tonight is the big dress-up gala dinner.
