The Good

This place is so beautiful, man. We got to see a bubble feeding. There was a pack of about eight of them. It's just amazing.

Icy Strait Point has become one of our new favorite places to come. This will not be our last time here. This was an amazing day.

🥉KnowledgeableVacay Happens

The lost roll. It was a 10. A 10.
