Disko Bay 69N 52W

I had been looking forward to this part of the trip. As you turn east into the bay, the icebergs get more and more numerous.

These icebergs look different from the ones off the Labrador coast. They are quite young and have a rough appearance because they have not been smoothed by years at sea.
A trip down Disko bay must be one of the most dramatic one day cruises in the world. That is Disko Island in the background.
This is how it looked from Meriah's deck as we drew near to Ilulissat on the east side of Disko Bay. We had to find a way through all that ice!
