Day 21 – Antarctica Day 1- Dec 10th

I will be posting out of sequence – jumping ahead to share some of the current Antarctica pictures.   I will backfill with more detail later.

We passed our first iceberg at 5:15 AM.  This one was pretty big but didn’t have a name.

Second Iceberg appeared at 7:30 AM – was 15 NM long and is named A57A

We saw this smaller iceberg around 5:15 AM
Here is a view of the “small iceberg” that gives a sense of its size

Larger iceberg – A57A – over 15 NM long appeared about 7:15 AM

It was about 32 degrees with 30 knots of wind – wind chill about 14 degrees
