One big adventure I'm looking forward to! Once the booking process starts, every trip is getting closer and more real. Many thanks to innotech(Mike) who gave me his agent name to book my Antarctica cruise and to all travbuddies for taking the time to detail their Patagonia trips!(kramerdude especially)

Halfmoon Island & Deception Island

December 13, 2008
After 2 days in bed due to the roughest waters in the world: The Drake Passage, I considered my price for the majestic Antarctica payed.
It was time to really enjoy my expedition and what a wonderful day it was!
Two landings on 2 different islands in the South Shetland: Chinstrap Penguins, Gentoo Penguins, Macaroni Penguin (only one :) ), Seals, different birds, whale bones, surreal blue icebergs and a perfect sunny day.

On my way back it was much better. Probably my brain started to understand what's going on :)
I was not sick but I had to lay down; once in bad I was perfect :)
