CRUISE TO ICELAND
AND GREENLAND
COMPLIMENTS OF
I was very excited to be the lucky winner of Dreamscapes
Travel & Lifestyle Magazine's contest to sail with Adventure
Canada from Iceland to Greenland this past summer. My
outdoor-loving 27-year-old daughter was thrilled to join
me on this adventure cruise. The ship's crew treated all the
passengers with utmost care and attention. The Adventure
Canada team made every minute aboard and ashore a
pleasure! All of the excursions were so well-planned and
executed. Some of the memories of the trip-of-a-lifetime
include: the first sight of the coast of Greenland from the
deck of the Ocean Endeavour; gliding past massive icebergs
in Prince Christian Sound; kayaking up to the face of an
ancient glacier as it slides into the sea; cycling among the
multicoloured buildings in the communities of Qaqortoq
and Nuuk; learning about Greenland's history, geology and
wildlife from on-board experts; the "polar plunge" on the
last day of the voyage. Most of all, I was struck by the raw
beauty of the rock and ice and have a new respect for the
Inuit and Vikings who carved a living out of this forbidding
land over the centuries. — Michael Erdle
