Images from Antarctica, Page-6

Our last stop was a shortened stop at Neko Harbor due to an oncoming storm, but what a last stop it was. The penguins were acting like they were training for the olympics, jumping on and off a small iceberg right in front of where we were sat on the beach. It was one of our most magical landings, and it was hard to leave - people were even in tears!
As we departed from the Antarctic we spotted a Leopard seal and a group of whales, with one of them seeming to smash his tail on the water as though he was waving goodbye! As we waved goodbye to the whales and the penguins, all we had to look forward to was our memories and a stormy trip across the Drake Passage!
