Ilulissat
Today we reached the settlement of Ilulissat which means Icebergs in Greenlandic.
And its an apt name because there are icebergs every which way and loose. The icebergs come from the glacier Sermeq Kujalleq which moves about 60 feet per day. The icebergs are so amazing that the area known as the Ilulissat ice fjord was named a UNESCO world heritage site in 2004. The best ways to view the icebergs in the fjord is either on a helicopter ride or a boat trip.
