Approaching Half Moon Island

Yesterday was the Solstice. Since we are in the Southern Hemisphere, down here it is the Summer Solstice. We had no nightime at all. We got south to Lemaire Channel but it was too icy to cruise through so that was the southernmost point of our journey. I will get the time, longitude and latitude later.

Right now (it is 8:14 am ) we have just entered the bay where we will embark on the Zodiac to land on the island. There are windows here in the Internet center on the ship and I just looked out. Once again I see another breathtaking vista of beauty. When that happens, spirit calls and I must leave to go look and photograph. More later.
