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!
