Next stop on the tour was
a visit to the huge Aialic Glacier. It's an impressive front that
meet us when we get close up to it with the boat, sailing slowly
in between the floating ice in the area. While we were there we
saw several parts of the glacier that broke off and fell into the
water. Some were small, but just before we were off a large part
broke down. I managed to catch most of it on film and it's a
great view. The Aialic glacier is part of the Kenai fjords
national park which is a huge glacier
