We enter the Caldera at about
7:00 hrs and headed towards Stancomb Cove. The morning sky was gray, light snow
was falling throughout most of the morning landing. Some brave people went for
a swim, not me – anyway snow and occasional soft rain was the tune of most of
the day until the afternoon when a radical and spectacular weather change
occurred sunny and warm.
The afternoon landing was Whalers Bay, the site for a former whaling station and an Antarctic Base.
The ground was covered with new fallen snow at our arrival. Some went for a
hike and others remained around the landing site exploring the ruins of the
base and the station. As the day progressed the day became nicer and nicer.
