I don't know if THIS VIDEO will work, give it a try. And THIS VIDEO too.
Fantastic videos, it looks amazing.

Wow. That would be a dream come true for me! I've loved manatees since I was young and saw them at seaworld on my first trip in 94.

We'll head out with Gary when we arrive early November - the water should still be warm enough for his friends to be in their favouriate areas. Once it drops below 68 degrees they head off to warmer waters, like Ft Myers power plant, who, even tho they don't need to, continue to release warm waters at Manatee Park to keep them warm.

Marjorie Glacier in Glacier Bay, Alaska. This is so much smaller than it was in 2002 when we saw it for the first time.




This is the Mendenhall Glacier and Nugget Falls in Juneau. Only a few years ago the glacier extended past the waterfall.




The Great Alaskan Lumberjack Show in Ketchikan. DH really enjoyed it and it is indeed a lot of fun, if ear-splittingly noisy.



All taken using my iPhone 6.
