WOW!!!!!!! Second Day here...fabulous!

I can now see why people just rave about this trip. The scenery is overwhelming...even though we have less than great weather. The ceiling is low, some snow at times, a few bits of sun here and there, but you have 360 degrees of snow covered scenery that is breathtaking. No photos or videos can do it justice.
This morning we saw loads of penguins flying through the water, a couple of seals resting on ice floes, and a few whales, one of which I was able to get a "fluke" photo. Also saw this sailboat...wouldn't want to be them!
It's lunchtime so shall send these off...we go to the Palmer Station and pick up some scientists for the afternoon, so that will be interesting.
