Day 6

On saterday morning after camping in a moss covered forest we went on a whale and wild life excursion, in Fjords National Park. In was, to say the least, beautifull. we saw a hole bunch of animals on our boat ride though out the park. We saw seals, sea lions (scratch his ass on a rock), sea otter, we saw a little bit of a minke whale, on our way to a huge bright blue glaicer where we watched and listened to Big peaces of ice fall off and into the water making huge waves that would rock the boat. When the Ice would crack and fall it sounded like thunder times ten. On our way back a bunch of dolphins that where black and white followed the boat. About 30 min. after the excitement of the dophins Megan spoted some thing off in the distance. She told the captain that she saw a whale. The captain swong the boat around a followed the whale. it turned out to be 4 or 5 killer whales and a couple of baby whales. Megan said it was one of the most beautiful things she has ever seen. After that we went to a few different ilands where a bunch of different kinds of birds like coramants, puffins and all sorts of gulls were nesting on the rock cliffs of the islands. Before we got back into the bay we stoped off at a island were they fed us a samon dinner, it was preaty good for samon. All in all it was fantasic boat ride into the wild.
