Prospect Point - January 4, 2011

As we set back on a northerly path, we came to Prospect Point in the morning. Another opportunity to kayak amongst the Fish Islands for an hour and then ride the zodiac to land on the continent of Antarctica. We hiked up the hill in the snow and as we headed down, the clouds parted and the sun came out. This is the first day we've really seen blue sky and sun. The colors are so dramatic compared to the shades of gray we've been seeing! After a quick lunch, we found our ship had pushed up onto an ice shelf so we could walk off the gangplank onto the ice to take pictures of the boat...spectacular. Just finished listening to Peter Hillary's second presentation and am heading to the spa before dinner! Another great day.
