This morning we visit Pia Glacier. We suite up and spend an hour or more looking at the Pia Glacier. The glacier flows from the Darwin Mountains into the sea. The glacier is melting fast due to climate change. Many small icebergs can be seen floating in the water in front of the glacier. Our zodiac driver picked up a small piece of ice float in the water. It is beautiful and looks like glass.

After lunch we head to Porter Glacier. Today’s hike is uphill and more demanding so some people stay on the ship. Our guide points out the plants and birds. It is a beautiful day and we are lucky the weather is nice.

After a nice dinner we head to bed.
