We spent the next two hours sailing through the fiords, admiring the scenery and keeping an eye out for any interesting wildlife. Of course, since I was up and on the deck, there wasn't an animal to be seen anywhere. The occasional bird flew by, but nothing else bothered to make an appearance. We've been told that once the icebergs show up, there would be seals and penguins on them, so we will have to wait and see if that happens.

Glaciers, glaciers everywhere
For some reason, the captain always picks the crack of dawn to pass through some of the most amazing scenery. Today was no exception. I had to get up at 8 am (an unreasonable hour for me) if I wanted to see the Romanche, Alemania, Francia, Italia and Holanda glaciers. As you can guess, these glaciers were all named after various countries.
