Our first expedition day offered guests the chance to consider how difficult it was for sailors from previous centuries to cross the Drake Passage. Sailing comfortably aboard National Geographic Explorer, guests were delighted with the first lectures on history and oceanography. Birders had a chance to admire the black-browed albatrosses gliding and dancing around us.
Today was a great chance to get accustomed to our sea legs and prepare for the upcoming Antarctic adventure!
