Sitting in the zodiac with two humpback whales blowing a spiral of feeding bubble just a couple of metres away from us and then coming out of the water, diving back down a their flukes coming clearly out of the water. Then another occasion when a humpback whales swan up to us and under our zodiac. I also have to mention the occasion when just myself and hubby were in the zodiac with two expedition team members and we got up close and personal with two ice burgs. The polar plunge was pretty memorable also

There were lots of memorable moments, that's for sure: First sightings of Antarctica, penguins, whales and seals were four of them. The Polar Plunge, I was the second one in, was another. Many of my fellow travelers followed me in. (Damn that water was cold, could not do the swimming I had imagined.) Might sound funny, but as a vegetarian, the vegetarian aspect of all meals was very memorable for me. I became a vegetarian about 40 years ago, but never have I had such delicious and fantastic vegetarian food available to me, buffet style, for two whole weeks. It was wonderful. So many other memorable moments, but my most memorable will always be standing atop that very high hill that we mountaineered up as team of six, plus our intrepid expedition leader, all connected to the same rope. We saw a fantastic avalanche from up on that hill, what a mighty wave it created in the ocean far below as it crashed down the side of that mountain. It was a physical challenge for me to do the climb, I was not sure that, at the age of 68, I could make it, but with the adrenalin that flowed through me and the encouragement of my team, I did it!
