On a rainy day in late August my family and I set out on a new trip. We traveled by car to Girdwood along the Turnagain Arm and were lucky enough to see Beluga whales on the way.

We parked at the Hotel Alyeska. We then traveled by van(小型货车) to the Portage station where we got on the train that would take us to the Spencer Glacier Whistle Stop. It was a 20~25-minute train ride to Spencer Glacier where we got off the train and took a van to the lake.

We went across the lake in the kayaks. It is about 1.5 miles across the lake to the face of the glacier(冰川) . It was an experience to boat among the icebergs and to see the face of the glacier get closer and closer?

We were excited to begin our hike on the glacier. It was such a thrill walking on the glacier. It rained most of the day but it was still such a beautiful trip in a lifetime experience. After about two hours on the glacier we headed back to the kayaks. The guide took some pictures before we started back across the lake.

We were tired as it was an active day but we were also excited about the amazing trip we had at Spencer Glacier! Rain or shine, it is a journey I would love to do every year!
