Aaarrgghhhh!!!! PENGUINS!! ICEBERG!! And LAND!! Absolutely amazing, fantastic and just WOW!!! Cannot believe I am actually at Antarctica, it is beautiful.
One and a half days of turbulent seas everywhere I looked and then all of a sudden there is a massive iceberg - such an amazing sight. Then there are penguins leaping through the water beside the boat, they are fast and oh so cute!!
We did our 1st landing this afternoon at 4pm, penguins everywhere - gentoo and chinstrap (little fluffy baby ones as well). Also big fat blubbery elephant seals lazing about along the shoreline.
Spent an hour wandering around amongst the penguins (they smell fierce, projectile poo going everywhere), photos galore. Baby penguins being fed by mum/dad, penguins playing and fighting, some just standing there being choice and others coming in and out of the water.
Couldn't feel my toes, so very cold!!
