This was my favorite day! We got off the ship at around 7 am and hopped a bus for Mendenhall Glacier. We got to see a bit of the town and learn more about it from a comedian bus driver. He showed us the river that will be packed with salmon in a week or two (so many fish that the inlet is literally red instead of blue water.) This was different from the Hubbard Glacier because we were able to get up much closer, we could have even walked to it if we had the time. The aqua's and purples in the ice were so coo to see. In the visitor's center, there was a super-dooper telescope that we could use to view the glacier up close and personal - WOW!!!
