Tracy Arm Fjord in Juneau210DB6DE-F75F-40F8-96CA-5C90B31262AB.jpeg

I wonder why they spell it that way. The fjord!

Anyways, the spellings were not the only thing we were wondering about. Apparently this glacier used to be much bigger and longer, but with global warming taking a toll, has reduced in size substantially. Wonder how long till all of it recedes completely.
Got to see a calving too, where a part of the ice broke off and fell making a roaring noise. Quite an experience that.

Check out the baby seal chilling (literally) on the ice. That's his version of a sun bath, I guess.
