Seeing the Penguin and Albatross colonies on the Falkland Islands (Sanders Neck and West Point Island). Enjoyed watching all the young fur seals around the old whaling stations of Grytviken and Leith Harbor. The stop at Mikkelson Cove was also nice as the weather was good and it was a nice easy walk, and I could take time to just observe the many Gentoo penguins and chicks.

The first glimpse of a massive iceberg, close up. So stunning that the captain circled the ship around it so everyone could get a view.

There are so many!! Fortuna Bay surrounded by thousands of King penguins and hundreds of juvenile fur seals. The history at Grytviken, with the story of Shackleton. The black browed albatross colony on the Falklands next to a rockhopper penguin colony. Icebergs of every size, shape and colour including getting close to one of the biggest icebergs in the world A23a. Standing on the continent of Antarctica among penguins, icebergs and fur seals. And then there was the great crew and staff of the Sea Spirit and the fantastic food!!! An incredible trip!!!
