Comments
We are steaming ahead through the numerous ice bergs that are now on our horizon, they are now a common theme for us onboard. Each ice berg is unique in each respected way, some are as long as the ship, whilst others would be 4 to 5 times bigger than Happy Dragon. The sea creatures have also grown in size, from coastal birds to now big humpback whales, playing in the water showing off their enormous fins. Early this morning a few whales travelled up close to the ship, just to say hello and greet us.
