Hostel Bookers is running a game of photo tag and were kind enough to include us in their inaugural post. I love going back through photographs that I haven’t looked at recently. Each one tells a story and reminds me of a precious moment in time.
Going to Antarctic is a once in a lifetime experience and there is no way that we’re heading there without a full bag of camera equipment and electronics to capture every moment. With each trip we keep adding to our gear list and now we have gotten to the point where our electronics are definitely outweighing our clothes and other gear.

We had our trepidations about crossing the Drake Passage. They are the roughest seas in the world and 20,000 sailors have lost their lives exploring these waters. In the 21st century things are much better for passengers cruising to Antarctica. Our ship, the Sea Spirit has state of the art stabilizers and Captain Peter has been sailing these seas for over a decade.
Bula Vinakka! Hello, Welcome to Fiji. You will hear these words every where you go in Fiji as warm and genuine smiles greet you at every turn. We have been to nearly 60 countries during our travels and nowhere on earth seems as happy and genuinely glad to see you as the people of Fiji!
It’s not your every day cruiser that sets sail to Antarctica. It’s not exactly the first destination that springs to mind when planning your vacation. Dave and I have made it our chance to step foot on the 7th continent and as adventure lovers this is the ultimate destination.
30,000 people visit Antarctica each year and we are on a ship with 112 other people. We asked some people what made them come to the South Pole and everyone had a very interesting reason.
