I met many new friends from all over the world. Together we enjoyed the amazing animals and environment God gave us. The weather was put of our control but in a way added to our experience. The guides and staff were a blessing. There knowledge of the antartic was amazing and they kept us safe throughout the expedition. My favorite part was seeing the penguins and my disappointment was not seeing any orcas. I guess I'll have to go again.
