Today we were up early and out on deck to see Deception Island – very different ash covered mountains and glaciers. We could easily see the moss and lichen – the only plants that grow here. We also got to see the largest colony of Chinstrap Penguins, thousands of little white dots – sadly my phone couldn’t capture them. The wildlife included seals, penguins and sea birds.
Later we sailed past Paradise Bay and then on to Admiralty Bay and St Georges Island. The ship provided a few views of the many research stations on the island. Another magical day surrounded by glaciers, mountains, wildlife and we even say a lone sailboat along with all the cruise ships in the area.
In addition to observing all the wildlife we managed to play Bridge (best view on the ship is from the Polo Grill Restaurant where Bridge is played). The ship headed North late this afternoon – headed for the Falkland Islands where we’re due to arrive on Tuesday morning.
We haven’t been to the gym since I got my cold, so it felt very good to get back at it late this afternoon. Busy in the gym today though!
Tonight, we attended a special dinner for “Round the World” cruisers also in the Polo Grill.
The Insignia Lounge presented Emilio Valle and his guitar in a new show tonight, so we managed to stay up for this event as well.
