Don's Blog Greenland V The Ice 1

When I dreamed of going to Greenland it was always about the ice. I was not disappointed. Awakened from a deep sleep one night when the ship crackled into, onto, and over the ice in the water I had a few short lived thoughts of a lifeboat drill. But it continued with regularity and I remembered the ship was "ice safe". It was the National Geographic Explorer, not the Titanic.The next morning this is what we saw out our cabin window.

And this is was off the bow.

What fun as we watched the ice in the water and along the distant shore.

 

The myriad number of shapes of the ice was hypnotizing.

 

Even on the cloudy day there were different colors on top and under the water.
