Antarctica
To whoever thinks Antarctica would offer just shades of white… look closely… In wounds that run deep into the sides of icebergs I found the purest blue I've seen so far, the purest purple only matched by a dusk in Iceland, and an incredible emerald green just below the water, the frozen counterpart of the lush Caribbean shallow beaches.
Inactive glaciers also can have sediments of green, brown or purple due to algae growth during summer. This unexpected rainbow blew my mind!
Early in the morning we traversed the incredible Lemaire Canal, flanked by huge mountains as I've never seen before (and I won't again until I visit Fjords)
Later we did awesome kayaking around Petermann Island were we saw half a dozen seals swimming by us and even more seals lazily resting over chunks of ice, in shallow waters far away from Orcas ):)
