My experience has been fantastic!
18th March, 2008We have been sailing across the drake’s passage for the last two days, mother nature, the sea, winds and the crew have all welcomed us for this short visit. Saw the first iceberg just shortly before finishing lunch today when Peter (team leader) mentioned to our table that there was a reason why we were sitting still. Immediately, I jumped out of my chair and rushed outside to take a good amount of pictures. I did not even finish desert. I came back to the dining room and had a nice chat with Paulina, one of our friendly waitresses, who said it will be one of the very many we would get to see during our journey. Thank goodness for digital cameras, as I may need to delete quite a few pictures to make more room in the memory stick for future icebergs. King George’s island is just a couple of miles ahead, can’t wait to get on shore and start to make friends with the penguins (from 5 meters away).
Fantastico!!!!!!!!!!!Me imagino la dimension del iceberg!!y me acuerdo del que choco con el Titanic o alreves, el barco choco con el iceberg. Siguiendote la huella, ayer vi que iban atravesando el pasaje Drake, y ahora te señala el indicador que estan en E Base Bellinhausen. Saludame a mis amiguitos los pinguinos!!!!!!!!! Enjoy the weather I love you!!!!!!! All my freinds say hi. Including Belle and Cabron, they miss you.
