Two years ago yesterday (Jan. 24, 2006), some of us took the plunge in the hot waters of Pendulum Cove in the caldera of Deception Island.
Close to shore the water was very hot, we had to go out a bit to get more comfortable water temperatures.
It was exhilarating!
Armed with towels, my dresser helped me get dry clothes on quickly with a minimum of shivering. Still, it was a cold Zodiac ride back to Explorer II.
We'd love to return to Antarctica.
