Antarctica was awesome! Since an expedition trip is not likely in the cards for us, this was our last change to see this beautiful place. Truly a once in a lifetime experience.
The crossing was comfortable, and we had some great clear weather whe we arrived in Paradise Bay. Because of the good conditions, we got to make an unschedule drive by Elephant Island.

Also a couple of videos over on the blog.

Pretty disappointed today, as we had to cancel our Falkland Island stop due to poor conditions (gale force winds developing). Many of us were looking forward to our penguin encounters. Oh well, that's life at sea!

Since I couldn't take my own penguins photos, thought I would borrow this one form the internet!
