Antarctica - Part 7

The Rotterdam cruises past the Chilean Station and through Waterboat Channel to Andvoort Bay.

The bright sun shine makes the late morning warm ... almost 30 degrees. Bergs float in our path. The Chilean base in the distance. As we approach, it becomes clear that the base has an infestation of ... ... Gentoo penguins. They're all over the place, surrounding the base. A man stands outside, watching as we pass by ... joined by the penguins. Station personnel come outside to photograph us as we pass! If any of these guys read this, please send your photos of the Rotterdam to ... revneal@mac.com. Thanks! The Rotterdam cruises by Andvoort bay. More Gentoo penguins come out to say "hi!" They look like they're all dressed up for Formal Night!
