Joy Sailors!!<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

What a beautiful navigation today!! We sailed from Cover bill to Paradise Bay, about 25 miles full of icebergs, snowing and with poor visibility. The navigation should have lasted 4 hours and lasted more than 8, it was beautiful, dodging ice and as I told you with very little visibility, about 300 meters, the sea calm, the snowflakes were curdling on the water, you have to know that the sea water here is at 0 degrees and the fresh water when falling in the form of snow. It turns to ice throughout the afternoon, even now that it no longer snows there is a plate of a few millimeters of ice on the sea, all this between ice debris and icebergs of all sizes, some like football fields. There were times when I had to choose which ice to hit because there was no way to avoid them, we have been more than 3 hours sailing at 2 knots, it was beautiful, sailing slowly with the sea still, under a thick snowfall, without wind, seeing some seals, even some whale (not many) as you went. It’s simply unforgettable… <\/span><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The end we arrived at the Brown base<\/a> in paradise bay, this year it is uninhabited and we visited it again, it is inside a penguin colony, we saw an albino penguin and some newborn penguins.<\/span><\/p>\n

Did you know that penguin eggs are cared for for 3 months by males? They are only responsible for preventing them from freezing, they cannot touch the ground… And the mother leaves 3 months to feed, then returns, finds the father and meets her newborn son. This is incredible, here nature is already too hard to also make the fauna, pass those hardships … This alone <\/span>It makes me think that humans are lazy… And we don’t stop complaining and getting weaker and weaker…<\/span><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

We also climbed a mountain, it was not very high, but with the big snowfall, it became a bit hard. The descent was spectacular, to pure multiple croquette, it was a lot of fun!<\/span><\/p>\n

The atmosphere is very good, we are increasingly comfortable, the weather and the beauty of the area helps to be very good.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tomorrow will be another day, we will sail to Peterman (my village) <\/span><\/p>\n


I leave you that I’m very busy …<\/span><\/p>\n

Do not forget that life is one and one…<\/span><\/p>\n

And that we must give life Joy … seamen<\/span><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
