I may never forget the initial fear, and then awe of having a humpback whale swim under my kayak! It was amazing to be so close to all the seals, whales, and penguins. I was also thrilled I got to be with my new friend and kayak-mate, Josh, as we came upon a sleeping leopard seal. This moment is what Josh had been waiting for for 15 years and why he took the trip.

The helicopter crew and Ryan the Expedition Leader deciding they could make the trip of 62 miles each way to the Snow Hill colony and then of course, actually making it there in the wind and snow! Secondly the helicopter sight seeing trip over Hidden Bay - just incredible.

This is a difficult question. From arriving in Ushuaia with a plane shaking from the wind, which in 200 previous flights I haven't ever seen, to the stunning scenes of an animal paradise in South Georgia, it is difficult to pick the one memorable moment out of the many. The expedition team was great and made many landings possible despite adverse conditions.

Hard to choose one. Kayaking within feet of a couple of feeding humpback Whales. Being so close to so much wildlife and them being at ease with out presence. Seals, cormorants, penguins, squas all within feet of us, and all of their choosing.
