Monday, January 16...even more amazing!

This morning, about 6 am, we were in Antarctic Sound where we encountered icebergs that were the size of housing subdivisions! Others were the size of office buildings...none of them were small...weird. We entered Hope Bay after breakfast and there found the smaller icebergs along with a penguin colony and a small settlement (Esperanza Station) for scientists in the midst of them. The day was brilliant again, but now (almost lunch), as we leave the Sound, the wind is over 43 mph with the apparent wind of 57 mph...and it's cold! It's almost lunchtime, so a brief rest for us until we reach Elephant Island about 6 pm...after that it's sailing towards the Falklands which we will reach the day after tomorrow.
PS..in the photo of Hope Bay below, that was the ONLY area free of snow we've seen.
