Antarctica!

Antarctica! Woohoo!

I have to say, it lives up to the hype. My 10 days in Antarctica have come to a close and I'm back in Ushuaia safe and sound. The boat ride itself was relatively calm and most of us stayed seasickness free. Here are my favorite pictures from each of our spots. If you're viewing this on a computer, hover your cursor over each picture for a little more info! (still trying to figure out this website, but we're getting there)

Portal Point

Enterprise Island 

Orne Harbor

Cuverville Island

Neko Harbor

Brown Station

Whaler's Bay/Deception Island

And that's that! Two more weeks here in Ushuaia and the new adventure begins. If you've got any questions, comments, or concerns, feel free to leave them in the comment section below (please include your name, as it is anonymous). You will definitely hear from me soon!

I hope that was worth the 10 day wait. I am currently editing the mountain of Antarctica pictures, but you can expect to see those on here by tomorrow. Maybe even later tonight if you're lucky 😏
