Thanks for the story
How amazing to be on a planet that expresses itself in so many different yet interrelated ways. I have been enjoying following you on this trip. I think of it as humbling and exciting to be in a place where human beings don't run the show. Safe travels.

Wow
Great photos from this visit, especially the whales. Can tell that winter is on the way in...Brown Station is boarded up....more snow on the ground.

An Incredible Adventure!
Wow--giant glaciers, penguins and whales up close. You two really had the adventure of a lifetime.

Oh well, at least I got to experience it through you--thanks so much!
