A Land Dedicated to Peace and Science

We sailed around the Antarctic Peninsula early this morning. The land was mostly covered in a blanket of snow. Icebergs of all sizes, shapes and shades of blue floated in the frigid water. Adélie penguins and seals dotted the shore. The magical and mysterious 7th continent is upon us and we couldn't be more excited!

After a hearty breakfast, we suited up and boarded the zodiac for our first kayak trip of this voyage. It was a thrill to step on the continent of Antarctica land and share a congratulatory kiss with Bill. The kayaking was surreal with little torpedo penguins jumping all around us and seals hanging out being lazy. It was such a peaceful and thoughtful ride in a pristine slice of nature. Here we are, the only place on earth dedicated to 'peace and science.'
