CRUISING ANTARCTIC WATERS-SATURDAY, JANUARY 30, 2011

We arrived at Palmer Station @ 9:00 AM and scientists from the United Stated Antarctic Research Program (USARP) arrived in their Zodiacs and came aboard and presented a talk followed by a Q&A session. They were young, dedicated and enthusiastic about their time in the South Pole. They left the ship after lunch with boxes of fresh fruit (and Heiniken Beer) from Crystal in their Zodiacs. There were 13 in all and from the USA.
The views from the ship were spectacular and the sea has been very calm.
