Serendipity!

Sailing into 60 mile per hour winds is not my idea of great fun, and the captain of Holland America's ms Westerdam had the same idea! So our ship set off on a new adventure, sailing Tracy Arm, part of the Tongass National Forest, south of Juneau Alaska. Serendipity!
Fed by the Stikine Icefield, the North and South Sawyer Glaciers calve frequently as tidewater glaciers. The fjord is a narrow, granite lined 30 mile or so, corridor to 2 beautiful glaciers.
Rain on the day of our visit only enhanced our amazement at the steep walls. Since the rain had no soil to stop its flow, instant water falls filled the area with the sound of rushing water. The fjord is known for having many wonder falls year round, but during rain, many more are created.
The ice flows are often the size of 3 story buildings. So maneuvering a ship in such waters is a tentative task. Motion is slow, so we enjoy the views as they drift by. The different colors of the glacier ice is amazing. Ranging from white to a turquoise blue, to a deep green blue, the colors are those that make you want to learn to paint.
So take a chance, change your path and see what Serendipity might cross your way.
