tSaturday, we cruised through a series of channels that connect the west and easy coasts of Greenland. It follows the end of the main island. Everything to the south is islands. The main eastern channel is named Prince Christian Sund. The icebergs come from the Greenland Ice Sheet which covers 80% of Greenland. They come from the east coast and are carried by the currents' south down the east coast and around the south end of Greenland and up the west coast then are caught by the Labrador current which takes them south south past Newfoundland.
