| It is hard to explain how big the mountains are in comparison to the ship. |
 |
| The mountains tower above us as we pass through the channel. |
 |
| The staff members are constantly running out to get a picture of the region. Regine poses for me as she takes a break to view the scenery. Most of the bar staff members are from the Philippines and the restaurant and crew staff are from Indonesia. |
 |
| The ice underneath the water gives the water a pretty blue color. |
 |
| A glacier and some icebergs that have broken off. |
 |
| To me this kind of looks like a don lying down with a short wagging tail. |
 |
| They've added Day 2's planned trip. The ice pilot on board decides the ultimate route. |
 |
| The arrow to the left (curled) shows where we started on Day 2. This is the planned voyage for our time in Antarctica. |
 |
| Listen carefully. You can here when an ice sheet breaks off from the glaciers. |
 |
| Note the whale's tale (fluke). This humpback is going for a deep dive eating krill. |
 |
| Instead of towels, the ship has woolen throws to be used to keep warm. |
 |
| Beautiful scenery and beautiful weather. The passengers have been so lucky. |
 |
| You can see that the larger part of the iceberg is under the water. |
 |
| This is only the second boat we've encountered (excluding the Palmer Station folks). |
