Don's Blog Ilulissat III

Ice is frozen water. Land ice is frozen fresh water which produces glaciers and icebergs. Sea ice is frozen sea water. Pack ice is sea ice that is piled up on itself over sea water. Today it was about
icebergs from the glacier. The glory of Ilulissat is to experience  the icebergs in the bay by Zodiac on a sunny day.


Eighty per cent of these icebergs are under the water often resting on the bottom of the shallow bay.


 Below a Zodiac is at the base of the iceberg on the right.



After awhile we began to see faces in the ice.




They know how to have a good time on a Sunday afternoon in  Ilulissat.


Time for us to head west across the Davis Strait.
