May 21, 2005 Serpentine Cove to Beetles Lagoon Day 82

Before heading out of Harriman Fjord we ran down to the end to Harriman Glacier. The mountains, sky, and glaciers were a dull white and the water was grey. We were in a world of ice. Two researchers in orange survival suits zipped over to our boat in a zodiac. They were in the Fjord studying birds for four months and seemed very lonely and eager to talk to us. We had an uneventful steam to Beetles Lagoon. We really like the lagoon. Every so often we find a place that just feels good, but we can’t explain why. Several other boats were in the lagoon. We spent a peaceful evening rowing around the lagoon and cooking fried rice.
