Today was scenic cruising in Glacier Bay. There were no scheduled activies during this time. It was very chilly outside rainy and foggy. By the time we reached Tarr Inlet, the fog lifted enough to see the glacier faces. These are ice rivers that are thousands of years old. They vary in color from white to all shades of blue. You could see where some of them have receded, and where others have increased in width. It is 
difficult to estimate how big these things are, but I am guessing that some of them are at least a mile wide and 20 stories tall. We did not see any whales, seals, bears or any other wildlife except a few birds.
I spent most of the day in a very comfy chair in the library, reading and watching the scenery. I spent some time with my new knitting pupil going over the basics of casting on and the knit stitch. Later in the afternoon, there was a bridge game and I was needed to play. My partner, who I had never met, and I played brilliantly (if I say so myself). We came in first with a 62% game! We then had dinner and then saw another musical production show. I must say that the food on this ship is so-so, but the production shows are wonderful. We thoroughly enjoyed the new singers and dancers.
Later in the evening, the Captain announced that we would be going into some weather, with high winds and seas. By the time we got ready for bed, it was starting to get a little rocky. Being in an inside cabin is not fun when you don’t have the horizon to look at or some fresh air, so the only thing you can do is go to sleep.
