Images from Antarctica, Page-5

We had a stroll around Port Lockroy, who's only inhabitants were 3 Brit's and a colony of Gentoo penguins. We also got the chance to send some postcards from the Antarctic - and the first time we've used British money in over a year!
Our next port of call was Paradise Bay, which is supposed to be one of the most beautiful places in the Antarctic, unfortunately it needs a clear day to see it, and that's just what we didn't get! We did get the opportunity for a bit of bob slaying down the slopes though!
Our next, and last landing, was Neko Harbor.
