- R. Buckminister Fuller
Thought of the day: There are tons of photos of flying birds, penguins, and glaciers each with their own story and mystique. But I don't have the time or patience and I'm sure you don't wanna see and read all about them so I'll just kinda quickly choose a few to post. Trust, there are a lot. These are just from our first landing.
Food for thought:

 |
| One of the most things I was most excited to see was an albatross. The bird with the longest wingspan in the world. I've been fascinated with them ever since I read the poem, The Rhyme of the Ancient Mariner by Samuel Taylor Coleridge. |
 |
| Richard's excited for our first time on Antarctica! |
 |
| This little gentoo penguin was our welcoming party. |
 |
| Penguins, zodiac boats and massive glaciers. |
 |
| Dang, get a room! |
 |
| You weren't allowed to go up to the penguins but if they came up to you it's okay. And since they're so inquisitive and not afraid of humans they did. |
 |
| This probably didn't hatch, more likely another bird flew in and ate it. |
 |
| I am here. |
 |
| Richard is here too. |
 |
| There's the gentoo penguin keeping it's egg warm. |
 |
| This little chinstrap penguin is ready to projectile shoot some crap! Seriously, that's how they do it. |
 |
| This was only our first landing so there will be many more to come. I'll leave you with this little wobbly guy. |
