Back in Argentina after a great trip to South Georgia and the Falklands.  Lots to share, but first need to make the long trip home.

We are off for penguins!

We are leaving today to head back to South Georgia, and this time Janine get to join me!  I believe this is my 7th trip to the Southern Ocean, and third in 12 months, but it may also be my last, so I hope to make the best of it.

I won’t be posting anything for the next month as I won’t really have any internet.  I’m also going to turn comments off here to avoid the onslaught of spam.  See you in a month!

Chinstrap penguins from last October.  This week I’ll be taking my third trip in the last 12 months to the Southern Ocean, and I believe my sixth trip overall!  Should be another exciting adventure!

Because my yacht based bear and whale trip has been so popular over the last couple of years, I’m doing two next year.  There are only a couple of spots left on each trip, so check it out if you are interested:  Alaska Photo Tours.  This photo was from this year’s trip.
