Minke Whales - from the Jewel of the Seas 14 Night Cruise to Greenland - September 21st, 2023
Very enjoyable sea day on September 21st, 2023 as we headed between stops at Nuuk and Qaqortoq, Greenland. These pictures of minke whales that were swimming on the port side of the ship - between us and Greenland (off into the distance). I believe we heard an announcement that whales were off the port side and ran up to Deck 11. It was great fun to see them - though we did not get any close pictures. The captain and crew are going to try to keep the ship far enough away from the whales when possible. On board the Royal Caribbean Jewel of the Seas for a grand 14 day cruise to Greenland (September 14th through 28th, 2023). The cruise embarks from Cape Liberty (Bayonne, NJ) with an actual stop in Manhattan (a delay leaving NYC caused by Hurricane Lee); Nuuk, Qaqortoq & Nanortalik in Greenland; St.John's, Newfoundland before heading back to New York City. It was a grand adventure!
