Beautiful day cruising the Inside Passage. It was even warm enough for breakfast on the back deck of La Veranda and chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream for lunch by the pool.

Alan and I skipped the Captain's reception for champagne in the Observation Lounge. It turned out to be a great decision considering the scenic ride the ship took through Grenville Channel. Whales, porpoise, a bald eagle and fjord in one fell swoop. Can't ask for more than that. The fresh grilled salmon dinner plus creme brulee desert capped off the night for me.

Between live tweeting, facebook and blogging, I'm finding it hard to squeeze in sea mail. Tomorrow is a sea plane ride in Misty Fjords.

Bedtime for me. More later.
