Sea days can often be subdued and contemplative. Today, however, was neither of those. Not long after breakfast, we reached our first sea ice, which was covered with harp seals. As we pushed on toward Greenland, we encountered many more seals as well as humpback, blue, and fin whales. The rest of the day was filled with presentations and National Geographic Explorer’s world-famous pancakes—of which I had three!
