Region: Antarctica

Destinations: Antarctic Peninsula

Ship: m/v Plancius

I can't properly express to you my gratitude (and those of my fellow shipmates) at the care the Plancius crew (and the Home Office) took of us during our extended Antarctic cruise (March 9-26). The statement that the Home Office relayed to us, though our incredible crew, that WE WOULD NOT BE STRANDED in any port (all while we were trying to make connections home) lifted the despair that so many of us were beginning to feel (when Argentina closed its borders). You kept us on board at no extra expense to us (and what had to be a huge amount for the company- in food stuffs, time, crew salaries, internet usage, etc). I'm sitting here "safe" at home in Des Moines, IA., (practically in tears) because of your company's generosity. I JUST CAN'T THANK YOU ENOUGH!!!!!!!!!! (PS: I'm already planning to take an Arctic trip with Oceanwide, when we can travel again.)
