was beautiful! Aside from waking up at 4 am to see our first iceberg, we were able to enjoy 5 days of beautiful scenery. I didn't get any good pics of whales, but Kriss got some awesome ones so I will need to steal some of those, but we saw whales, penguins, seals, and lots of birds. Here are a few Random Antartic facts:
Holds 90% of the world's fresh water
13,000 ft. deep of water
Only 12 cruise ships allowed a year, and this year may be the last
10,000 year old ice
Icebergs 2 miles long and 200 ft. tall floating in the ocean
And 2/3 of the iceberg is under water
-160 degree weather
Driest place on earth
Penguins on Antarctica
John in Antarctica
Penguin swimming next to our ship!
Antarctica from our ship!
We saw a whale spray water under the tunnel but I missed the photo op!
John and his cute mom. She was out there all day taking the best pictures!
Did we see Penguins or Donkeys?
On the Chilean coast as we sailed around Cape Horn.
If anyone tells you it's a smooth ride down to Antarctica, they are lying to you!
