After the first few days out at sea, I'm finally getting my sea legs; A bit
queasy, but all good. We have had a pod of Hourglass Dolphins following our
ship. Good luck! We arrived today to Las Islas Malvinas (Falklands) where we
started at West Point Island. It was absolutely incredible! We checked out
a rookery of thousands of Rockhopper Penguins alongside a colony of
Wandering Albatrosses and their chicks. Then off to Carcass Island for a
rookery of Magellanic Penguins and other bird species. The naturalists and
ornithologists are so knowledgeable and enthusiastic and it's totally
contagious!
The food is pretty good, I have a 82 year old roomie (pretty cool), and
hangin' with many cool people on board. I won't be able to send photos, will
have to wait for when journey is over. We set sail in a few hours for a 2-day
journey at sea to the much anticipated South Georgia Island! Should be
amazing!
Will write again soon, hope all are well. I'm so lucky to be here!!
