Crossing the Drakes Passage

Rough seas today.  About half of the people were missing at meals, including Jeff.  They call these seas “moderate”.  Really?  Anyway we are at the “convergence zone” which is where the Pacific and Atlantic converge, and the reason for all these waves.  Tomorrow we land at the South Shetland islands.  We are psyched! This is why we came, hopefully we will see some penguins.  Also a little outpost.  Any of you friends or family who would like to get a postcard from Antarctica EMAIL your address DON’T post it here.  Lectures today from Nat. Geo photographers, undersea biologist, videographer, bird expert, historian.
