Antarctica

Antarctica… no better introduction than Vangelis's composition:

We paid, and it was worth… but not for the whales (just saw them in the distance). We approached the Antarctic Peninsula (Wilhelmina Bay) where we did our first kayaking




Couldn't see any  humpback whales close to the kayak, but we heard a few icebergs bring born from mother glaciers to start their life gracefully sailing the ocean. Later,  after kayaking around, we landed on Cuverville Island where lives the largest Gentoo penguin colony (4800 reproductive couples)
