| tracy arm from promenade deck |
yesterday we traveled up the beautiful alaskan fjord of tracy arm. frequently, we won’t always get really far because of ice or fog, but we made it all the way back in today which was lovely. bob and i took a few pictures outside and then another few from our window so you could see what a sweet view we have from our room in the sky.

| one half of the window... nice! |
i have met a few characters on board… one lady (not a piano bar patron) i met in the lido commented wryly how cheerful i was while standing in line at lunch. she is from, well, a warmer state, and when i asked how she was enjoying her cruise, she kind of harrumphed and said, “all these trees… hmph! you can shove ‘em all! and it’s cold!” i reminded her it was alaska, and coming on fall… she harrumphed again and mumbled away. i was left wondering why she hadn’t stayed in her warm, dry, presumably treeless environment. i hope when i get older, i will not look for things to be wrong in the day… if i do turn out like that, nino, you can stick me on an iceberg somewhere…

| like this one, bean... |
my theme last night was moon and stars, not that you could see any… i did robert service’s “ballad of the ice worm cocktail” behind which i throw in some music. i love the grey weather, and have decided that grey (in all it’s variety, especially the dark stuff) might actually be my favorite color. i tried to tell my piano bar patrons that the clouds make the ice more blue, so they shouldn’t fret if it’s overcast on glacier days… i’m not sure they were convinced, and even my pictures don’t quite capture the depth of blue in the ice we saw today… lovely!
