After the landing on Orne Island we took the long way back to the ship, cruising through small icebergs: incredible!
Counting my blessings, and this vacation sure is one of them..

Nuff said..

Even in a crowded and noisy Zodiac boat, you still enjoy the silence..

The Man In Charge

There’s the ship..

Big-ass chunk of ice..

Well, another beautiful day in the Antarctic Region. We’re doing a landing on the Orne Island(s) and it’s penguins again, sigh.. Getting a bit bored with those guys, but when you see them up close, they still make it worth the while. Just a bit spoilt, I guess..

Magnificent morning view!

Incredible skies!!

Dress rehearsal for the real thing

The whole thing’s so.. wow..
