Adventures at home, abroad, and online

Category: Argentina and Antarctica Page 2 of 3

South Shetland Islands

We finished the Drake Passage with our stomachs intact and got our first sights of the White Continent! The winds are down, and the stoke is high.

Brown Bluff and Paulette Island

We saw our first big penguin colonies, and tried our best at being National Geographic wildlife photographers.

Erebus and Terror Gulf

Today we got off the ship again and into the water for a kayak among icebergs and the “polar plunge.” What a trip!

Cierva Cove and Cuverville Island

We are back on the western side of the Antarctic Peninsula, as the ice was too thick on the east. The weather is a bit colder, but the stoke is still high.

Lemaire Channel to Petermann Island

Today we crossed the spectacular glacial channel and had our last landing on Antarctica. But we still have more cruising to go!
