12.00nn 0.2nm off the face of John Hopkins Glacier
              Overcast, drizzle, light breeze; 6 degrees C

It was a pretty bleak and cold day but absolutely fantastic to sail up to the Glaciers and watch them carving (breaking away into the water).  We watched from the Crows Nest and went out on deck only to take photos.
