July 27 Tuesday Off Labrador Slept the sleep of the just because there was no sea on. Arose fresh and well. Going to deck to and behold! ice here everywhere and on the low Labrador coast there are num- erous patches of spars and ice. At 7.30 G.M. we are opposite Holy Harbor, Basalt here? Labrador is desolate and rather cold, The land is green but very thin and my blue and then does one see patches of a deep green probably places of small bushes. The temperature at 7.30 A.M. is 41° in the shade. In the sun one does not feel cold with his woolen under wear which I have on. At 8.30 we are opposite the larger end of Belle Island. It's quite a large land mass and may be 4 to 500 feet high. At 10.15 we pass a fairly large ice berg. Capt. Bartlett heads the vessel close so that the photo- grapher can take pictures. It is one of the tipped bergs and shows several blue streaks. There are cracks in which clear water has run from. On the tip of the bay were several hundred white gulls and I now appear to be another
