Day 1 of my voyage to the #Antarctic Peninsula on the #tallship #BarkEuropa: departing from #Ushuaia and sailing east along the Beagle Channel.

The stand-out sights of this small boat excursion were a number of Weddell seals resting on some of the bergy bits.
Day 8 of my voyage to the #Antarctic Peninsula on the #tallship #BarkEuropa: instruction on climbing on the higher sections of the masts and the yards, then passage through Lemaire Channel (commonly referred to as Kodak Crack back in the day when all photographers used film), followed by a landing on the Yalour Islands, which host a large Adelie peguin rookery.

#BusmansHoliday@PoLaRobs Climbing on the higher sections of the masts is not for me unfortunately, but the view from up there must be exceptional !

@andre123 For the most part it's just like climbing a ladder. Harnesses are worn though and for the trickier bits (getting onto the platforms and going out on the yards) we were instructed to clip a lanyard onto safety lines.
