I can't say which was my most memorable because every minute of the tour was memorable! 1.) Landing on the continent with the flag 2.) Polar circle crossing baptismal ceremony 3.) Polar plunge 4.) Spending time with fellow guests, staffs, and crew of Ocean Nova

The trip was full of memorable moments - for the first three days, it was just one awe-inspiring moment after another, and really we continued to be surprised and delighted up until the last hour. If I have to pick one moment, I’m going to pick the bum slide down a steep slope overlooking a calving glacier and a tranquil, iceberg-filled bay that followed a lovely hike past a penguin rookery. But also: the orcas appearing during the whale talk, the baby humpback breaching off the bow of the zodiacs, the polar plunge, watching from the outriggers as the the boat cut through the ice, drinking macallan with ice fresh from a berg, having an impromptu dance party with my husband on top of a volcanic cinder cone. It was just a super trip from beginning to end.

Sitting in a rock on top of Danco island and watching thousands of gentoo penguins in their daily life all around me. The view below was incredible floating ice bergs, glaciers, mountains, seals and even a whale. The most breathtaking view- and seeing our ship in the bay gave proportion to the grandness of Antarctica. Difficult to describe the beauty and feeling I had in this beautiful continent!

As a group, we kayaked. The most memorable moment for me was wen we were south of the Antarctic circle and we beaches out kayaks on a bit piece of sea ice and walked around. There was another sheet right next to the one we landed on so we hopped over. When we turned around, an Adelie penguin and shot out of the water onto the ice and waddled over to us. We couldn’t see the ship. It was incredible

There are so many! Kayaking is the only way to see Antarctica so, on the recommendation of Swoop, we signed up for the kayaking package. All our moments are literally in the water. So close to a swimming seal that we could touch him with our paddle (we didn't, of course). Penguins porpoising and keeping up with our strokes. The sound of lapping waves on our kayaks. Jumping from sea ice-to-sea ice that no person had ever walked on.

The most memorable moment of all times was the heat and the intensity of the sunlight that i saw at the top of the mountain. As u know, Antarctica had the highest recorded temperatures while I was there. and its not just like any other high temperature that I'm used to in NY, this sun in Antarctica is very strong. its bright and it got very hot. never did I even imagine that the sun and the heat that i will face in Antarctica will be stronger than what im used to NY. goes to show how severe the climate emergency is. and its real!. that was astonishing!
