ANTARCTICA π€ A place of extremes, of extreme beauty, and one that most people assume is pretty much, well, white!! It is! But, it's also full of quite surprising colour π Today we visited Horseshoe Island, beyond the Polar circle. It's one of my favourite spots because of the insanely beautiful Malachite that can be found in the granite rocks there. Just wow!! There were also some sensational colours in this very iron-rich rock along our hike - you can see the oil-like patterns and also some lichens growing on the surface. AdΓ©lie penguins must also get a mention as well, of course! π§π What a first day of expedition and exploration on NG Endurance!
With Lindblad Expeditions
Enjoy!
