Danco Island, which is about one mile from the Antarctic Peninsula, and Neko Harbour - our first opportunity to land on the continent - were our hoped for shore landing sites for November 17th but weather conditions had other plans for us. However, we were able to cruise around in the zodiac. By this time we are really beginning to wonder if we'll ever land on the Antarctic mainland....
Here's a sample of what we saw... it'll be easy to see why my favorite color around the white continent is blue.
How small does our ship look in this photo?
Only two more days before we head back out into open water and the feared Drake Passage....stay tuned for the Orcas and more!

ReplyDeleteBeautiful pictures! I especially like the mirror images off the water.
ReplyDeleteYou're right. Your ship looks very small! I had to enlarge the photo to find it! But the photos are great!
