Around 5am this morning we crossed the Arctic Circle. It's difficult to tell when it is night & day because it is light almost all of the time. Sunrise is around 3am & sunset is around Midnight.
Once North of the Arctic Circle we cruised through some fjords & visited the Svartisen Glacier (2nd largest in Norway). This glacier is not as spectacular as the ones in Alaska or Chile, but was still awesome to see.

Chilly Chile -- Amalie Glacier
While today is another day @ sea we cruised into the Peel Inlet to view the Amalie Glacier early this morning. This is 1 of 48 glaciers in the Southern Ice Fields. While the ship was not able to get as close to this glacier as it can to the ones in Alaska it was still a spectacular site.
