Antarctica Expedition Part II
Antarctica Expedition including the Falkland and South Georgia Islands Part II
Best trip EVER! In Part I, we sailed to the Falklands and the South Georgia Islands. In today's show, we finally reach Antarctica, and the beauty and magic of what I see brings tears of joy to my eyes.
In addition to all of the amazing glaciers and sculptural icebergs we see, we see hundreds of thousands of penguins of several breeds. We see whales - and we weren't even there during 'whale' season!
We get to hike around the penguins, kayak around the icebergs and experience this polar wonderland in ways I will never forget.
Learn what its like to go on an expedition ship (I went on Hurtigruten's MS Fram). You'll learn what its like each day, who goes on these expeditions, what you eat and so much more.
I was blown away and can't wait to share it with you!

En route, we visit the Falkland and South Georgia Islands, rugged places of history and outstanding wildlife! South Georgia is called the Serengheti of the Southern Oceans for good reason!
Learn what its like to go on an expedition ship where you are actually ACTIVE, instead of a regular cruise ship, and why you never run out of fun and exciting things to do.

Loved It, Thanks
Really enjoyed listening to your podcast today about attending the Birthday party in Fort William, Scotland and walking the West Highland Way. I laughed so much at how you pronounced some of the towns and villages 🤣 Thank You.
