The best way to start a morning in Greenland is to look at your watch. Why that? Simply because with such a northern latitude you could easily wake up and believe its 8am when in fact it is still well into the night. In Narsarsuaq it's not really up to that point because its location is more south than Reykjavik for instance. This land extend so much south-north its incredible.
So after a good breakfast in our hotel, we decided to take a tour in the middle of the glacier mouth. The isolated place renders some amazing pure ice and with the air trapped inside, gives a bluish appearance.
The icing on the cake is, some vodka with a direct ice supply from the nearby ice cube! A delight and a good time sharing this with our DC-3 friends.

After having enjoyed our tour we did some flight planning while Mireille and Markus bought Francisco and I a jacket in a nearby little store to keep us warm!! They are such nice and fantastic persons! Now we are equipped for the worst weather and the rest of the crossing without heater!
In the evening we went to the hotel's restaurant, not awaiting to be treated with delicious menus and some perfect cocktails, made at the table!
The next day, once those cocktails evaporated from us, we went for a little take off and landing with a great fly-by over the airport in order for Greg to film us like if we would be arriving, all this for his movie which we are all eager to watch. Here are some footage from inside, I had the pleasure to be flying this under the good advice from Cisco.
It was such a nice experience, making tight turns in the fjord.
Again, in the evening, we all went to our now favourite restaurant and had the same dinner as the previous evening, treating ourselves to some good times.
The next day we will have our second crossing, the one that will bring us to Reykjavik, already looking forward for this flight.
