Second landing of the day at Cuverville Island, a great location with penguin colonies. It was just the most perfect weather you can imagine and we just sat there at the beach enjoying the place, the sights and sounds.

Ready for the landing

Kinda says it all, doesn’t it?

Very nice view

Pretty nice view

Well, after a pretty cool landing and boat trip, we went on to the second landing of the day: Cuverville Island. Thing is, before we got there we got another fan-frigging-tastic trip with quite some iceberg sightseeing.. If you don’t like these bergs, move on, heheh..

Taking some time off between trips..

Yes, anything wrong with red socks?!?

Just to give you an idea of the size of those bergs..

Taking a bit of a risk with me camera just inches above the water..

wow..

damn!
