Pleneau Bay Zodiac Cruise

Just around the corner of Booth Island is Pleneau Bay/Iceberg Graveyard, which is where the expedition team decided to do the zodiac tour this afternoon. Skies were clear and blue. It turned out to be a beautiful afternoon.

I had the expedition team leader, Juan, as our guide today, and he was excellent in having a knack of where to go to show us interesting bergs.

As we headed back to the ship, he cut the zodiac’s engines and we had a minute’s silence, listening to the sounds of nature in Antarctica. He asked another zodiac driver, who was nearby, to cut her engine too. It was peaceful and surreal. My heart is filled with love for this place.

Unfortunately Paul was unable to join me because he had to work. The poor chap got an earful of how the zodiac cruise went, when we eventually met up.

In the evening I was invited by 4 Australian guests to join them for dinner. They were very good company and it was a nice night.Baca selengkapnya
