Antarctica 2005 - Day 7 : Paradise Harbour (3) - Landing On The Continent!

Completely forgot to post these pix.. Late, never, and such..
Anyways, finally! A landing on the continent itself! Now, I just have to visit Africa and I’d ‘ve done all seven continents, whoohoo..
We had a great cruise along the scary large glaciers and not so scary seals and now we land on the continent. My dad gave me the flag of Curaçao to reprezent my island in full effect!
