British flag with penguins around it.
Humpback whale bones, head on left
Today we went ashore to see another British outpost, this one in better shape, with a gift shop and small museum. Also saw whale bones from whaling days, and lots of Gentoo penguins. I think they are my favorite kind. They are unafraid and so goal oriented that they waddle right by us, oblivious, on their way to whatever they are doing such as getting food, or rocks, or getting to their rock nests. I have a case of windburn and look like I’ve got measles, but it will pass. We also saw 3 killer whales in the afternoon and watched as some researchers tried to get next to them in a Zodiac and tag them.



Your photos are fabulous! Thanks for including me in your list. Looks really cool!
What a fantastic trip; we are enjoying living it vicariously – and from a warmer and more stable location! David and Caroline
Aww, the twin Penguin’s are adorable! Have a safe trip home and call when you get home! Love You.
