You'll explore the quaint and historice villages and valleys of Mozart and the Sound of Music surrounded by the majestic alps. You'll have time to drink in the beauty of Salzburg and visit a castel.

This Austrian adventure is the perfect mix of history, culture and adventure!

Hurtigruten's MS Fram : Expedition Ship Behind the Scenes

Take a peek behind the scenes of a polar expedition ship, Hurtigruten's MS Fram, the ship I recently took on my three week expedition to Antarctica and the Falkland and South Georgia Islands.

I wondered how they made things operate so smoothly when we were so far from civilization and a hardward store for parts, a grocery store for food, and a water or sewage treatment plant for our daily necesities.

Today, we explore the Bridge, where the Captain and crew navigate, the Kitchen, the Engine Room, the Expdition's Tender Pit, and the Crew Quarters. It's a fascinating journey!

Visit the website to see photos and get more Behind the Scenes details, and to see and hear about my amazing Antarctic expedition!

Antarctica Expedition including the Falkland and South Georgia Islands Part II

Best trip EVER! In Part I, we sailed to the Falklands and the South Georgia Islands. In today's show, we finally reach Antarctica, and the beauty and magic of what I see brings tears of joy to my eyes.

In addition to all of the amazing glaciers and sculptural icebergs we see, we see hundreds of thousands of penguins of several breeds. We see whales - and we weren't even there during 'whale' season!

We get to hike around the penguins, kayak around the icebergs and experience this polar wonderland in ways I will never forget.

Learn what its like to go on an expedition ship (I went on Hurtigruten's MS Fram). You'll learn what its like each day, who goes on these expeditions, what you eat and so much more.

I was blown away and can't wait to share it with you!
