ICEBERG!

We've seen our first iceberg, a spactacular high ended great huge lump of
ice looming out of the mist. On top one lone penguin. It's incredible to
think how they get up there. And we had whales with tails in the air. We are
now close to land but we are encased by silver and can't see far enough. I
have to keep checking the radar on the bridge to be sure we are on track.
We're heading for a bay that looks rather like a large version of
Refuge/America Bay in Broken Bay on the chart. That is the home of the
Polish base we will stop at. As our captain is Polish everyone on the base
is apparently excited we are coming.
