Port of Call: Port Stanley, Falkland Islands
Excursions: Bluff Cove Penguins (Me and J); Rockhopper Penguins (J's Parents)
Brief Thoughts: Getting to and from the penguin rookery was an experience in itself. "off-road" is an understatement. We saw thousands of adult and chick Gentoo penguins at Bluff Cove as well as a few King penguins. While the adults avoided us, the chicks were fearless, especially the two little ones which you will see in the photos below. The chicks had started to moult and were absolutely adorable. J and I really enjoyed this excursion. It was definitely the highlight of the cruise so far.
Here are some assorted penguin pictures from today. Can anyone guess what Picture #18 is?
