Okay, I will preface this by saying that this is NOT like my usual posts, so if you’re new…skip this shit, this is for the people who emailed me for pictures. If you look ANYWHERE else on this blog, it’s nothing but dick jokes and stories about delightfully obnoxious children (although those are never in the SAME post…we’re not monsters). In fact…I’ll post something typical immediately after, so as not to confuse people into thinking this is now a travel blog.
1.
Seriously, how is anything this awesome even allowed…
2. Glacier Bay
If I heard Caolinn sing My Heart Will Go On, one more time, I was going to strangle her.
3. Hubbard Glacier
It’s hard to get the full impact from these, but Hubbard Glacier is 6 miles wide (and over 70 miles long, stretching into Canada), and 250 ft ABOVE the surface of the water. Every few minutes some of it calves off in the front. The last time it happened before we left (pictured above), it was huge. And, yes, the entire ship cheered…for global warming.

It could just be my being judgmental, but when naming a whorehouse, maybe pick something more vagina-complimentary? This just makes me think you need a crate of soap and some broad-spectrum antibiotics.
5.
Um…can go for a thousand miles with no sleep, loves his dogs, AND has a sense of humor? Well, hello, Sir…I’d like you to be the source of numerous future mistakes…
6.
They’re the pigeons of Alaska.
7.
Seriously…whales and reindeer. WHALES…AND REINDEER… How is this even happening?

Our last day at sea, our ship responded to a distress call from a Canadian fishing vessel. Before it was all over, there were five boats in the water, a plane parachuting medics, and the helo doing the extraction. Canadian Coast Guard…you kick ass.

And now I’m back in 112 degrees…sigh.
This looks stunningly beautiful! Thanks for sharing.
It was seriously crazy-beautiful. I’d go back in a nanosecond.
What an AWESOME Trip! Loved seeing these things through your uh, unique perspective!
I love when people say unique instead of twisted. lol
More pictures! More pictures!
Trust me…you don’t want my 200 pictures of different angles of the same glacier. I even annoyed myself.
Amazing photos! Love the moose shot.. Any yeah I think those trees do look like they making rude gestures! So funny! 🙂
Ha! I knew what you meant. I did see a moose, but only briefly from a moving bus. I was hoping to see another, or a bear, but alas…
And by moose I meant reindeer. Doh!
Very interesting photos. Looks lovely. Thank you for following my blog, but I must warn you it won’t have good stuff like this.
WHAT!? NO REINDEER!? DAMN IT!!! 🙂
No whorehouses either and sadly no Moosehead lager.
Wow sounds like an awesome adventure!
Diana xo
Loved it…totally have to go back to see a bear. In fact, if you let me go back tomorrow…I’d be there.
Awesome! I’m gonna start making plans now…. Although it will probably be a couple of years before it happens, so hopefully global warming will hold off for a little while?
Fingers crossed! 🙂 It better…I still need to see bears, damn it.
Better than Aunt Mildred’s slideshow from Boca. Oy, it went on for hours.
And who needs to see Boca? What the hell is there…except for a plethora of Aunt Mildred’s?
Great pics!!! The climate contrast must have been staggering for you. I love the natural blue in the icebergs.
It’s over 110 here…I’m melting. 😦
Haha! Your blog cracked me up 🙂 You are my kind of people. Just got back from Alaska myself and i was staggered and breathless from the beauty. I also really enjoyed seeing Matt Hayashida’s presentation (and may I say “hubba hubba”)
Thanks for sharing!
RIGHT!? Love that place. I can totally see why people live there, but then again…I’ve only been there in June… 🙂
