When cruising to Antarctica, sometimes it’s like this… 😱

Now THAT'S a Drake Shake!

Check out this spectacular shot taken on an expedition in March this year.

What makes the Drake Passage so infamously rough is the fact that currents at this latitude meet no resistance from any landmass, anywhere on the planet. Coupled with the area’s propensity for high wind, a crossing of the Drake Passage can be quite the adventure!

Pop over to London and listen to Big Ben chiming in the New Year…

On this day 31st December 1923 The chimes of Big Ben were broadcast on radio for the first time by the BBC.

One of the requirements for the clock was that the first stroke of the hour bell should be correct to within one second per day. The tolerance is with reference to Greenwich Mean Time (BST in summer). So, at twelve o'clock, for example, it is the first of the twelve hour-bell strikes that signifies the hour (the New Year on New Year's Day at midnight).

Photo of Big Ben the Great Bell.

Here's the 2009 New Year Eve Chimes:

“I wonder if the snow loves the trees and fields, that it kisses them so gently? And then it covers them up snug, you know, with a white quilt; and perhaps it says, "Go to sleep, darlings, till the summer comes again.” - Lewis Carroll

Cruise lines are working hard to care for the environment.

AIDAprima was bunkered in Rotterdam yesterday with 140mt of GoodFuels’ biofuel, derived from feedstocks certified as wholly waste or residue, without blending with ordinary marine fuels.
