  12/16/2022 Adventures With Diego and Vicki   We launched first with Diego at the helm.  Record snowfalls and glaciers blanketed the sea.  Duane's zodiac was right behind us and  Sandy was the first to discover the leopard seal  pictured in the earlier post. Vicki was at the helm of our expedition to  Yalour Island's Adelie Penguins.  While we were in shallow waters,  she grabbed  a sample of the crystal-clear ice. Green Algae and icicles. Sy lvia and Vicki getting ready to hoist up the zodiacs at the end of the day.
