More Antarctic returnees with great photos. Thanks to John Dudley for these- in particular for the Emperor penguin - a very rare sighting indeed (taken on an ice flow in the Hanusse Bay - below the Antarctic circle). Even the ship's captain got excited about that!

Feedback from Lois Green - recently back from Antarctica Hi Heidi, Have been meaning to drop you a line ever since getting back to say thank you. The trip to the Falklands, South Georgia and the Antarctic Peninsula was amazing. Certainly lived up to my expectations. Only missed out on one shore landing due to weather but gained one with a stop at the rarely visited South Orkney Islands where the researchers were very hospitable serving coffee and biscuits. We did have some great weather which always helps, everything from snow to bright blue sky and sunshine. I keep looking at the photos and pinching myself to think I was there. Perfect reflections and heaps of wildlife. The numbers are just phenomenal everywhere you look. It is almost like I am spoilt for travel for a while at least. I was grateful to have met my travelling companion before the trip. I also don't think I would have had the courage to just put my name forward and be matched up with someone although the people I spoke to that had done that seemed quite happy. So thank you for your part in that. Thank you once again for your help and assistance with making this dream a reality for me. Regards, Lois Green

Don and Diana Reynolds from Young in NSW just back from South America and Antarctica. What a fantastic and memorable trip. Thanks to your expert organisation we have had an absolutely wonderful time. We really loved Antarctica and the ship’s staff were beyond expectation. The crew were fantastic and within a few days knew everyone by name. The weather was kind to us and we did all but one landing. The Ice Camping was an experience and the sunset beautiful, we even did the polar plunge!! Even the Drake was calm. The food on board was absolutely beautiful.I highly recommend this trip and would encourage anyone going to Antarctica to go to the Falklands and South Georgia as well. All in all we have had a superb and memorable holiday. Don & Diana Reynolds Young NSW
