  • Miracle trip during pandemic times with amazing staff and crew

This trip was a miracle. The pandemic was still looming and Omicron was hitting many countries. I can't believe we even made it to Argentina. When everyone tested negative on the antigen test before boarding the ship I thought ok we made it! We made it through drakes passage and it was time for another antigen test. To our surprise, there were 2 positive cases. We all were devastated. If a total of 5 people tested positive we would have to turn the ship around and see what the Argentinian government wanted to do. I thought we would only have 1 day in Antarctica and then we wouldl have to go back and possibly quarantine with the ship. Everyone had the same thought. The staff and crew were absolutely amazing. They told everyone to do their part and hand sanitize, stay separated, and wear the mask at all times. We split up into our color groups and each day we experienced the beauty of antarctica and each night we tested and hoped for another day. Each day we were surprised that everyone including staff and crew tested negative. We had our 4 days in antarctica and came back with the same 2 cases. It was all because of the expedition staff and crew, especially sara. Thanks!
