January '08 - South America: Chilean Fjords

From the Eire Glacier, we headed on toward the Europe Glacier. As we pass through the channels, there are lots of little pieces of ice, probably from the glacier.

It was near this point that the captain decided the waters ahead contained too much ice and we aborted the trip into the channel to see the Europe Glacier. Thus, these little pieces of the Europe Glacier "calves" would be all we would see of it!
