Day Seven: Tuesday, October 22 - The Falkland Islands 
Breakfast: Breakfast on board the ship

Morning: The Falkland Islands provide a rare opportunity to witness the biological diversity and extraordinary scenery of the southern islands. Nesting Albatross, penguins and elephant seals are abundant. Port Stanley provides an opportunity to meet the hardy local inhabitants whose colourful houses provide contrast to the long dark winters. The islands consist of 700 small and mostly uninhabited islands and 2 main islands- East and West Falklands. Localed 490km east of Patagonia, the Falklands have always been a land of hot debate. Officially discovered on August 14, 1592 by John Davis they remained uninhabited until 1764 when the French built a garrison at Port Louis disregarding the Spanish claim to the islands. From that moment there have been many disputes between Spain, France, Britain and Argentina over the next 200 plus years until the end of the Falkland War between Britain and Argentina in 1982 brought the islands firmly under British control. Now with a human population of only 2,491, the islands are teh first stop in our journey. here we hope to catch our first glimpses of penguins, including the Magellanic, rockhopper, gentoo and king penguins. With a little luck we may also see elephant seals, sea lions, king cormorants, black-browed albatross, skuas, night herons, giant petrels, striated caracaras and of course, sheep.

Lunch: Lunch on board the ship

Afternoon: Continue exploring the Falkland Islands

Day Eleven: Saturday, October 26 - South Georgia Island 
Breakfast: Breakfast on board the ship

Morning: South Georgia Island is home to many marvels including Shackleton's grave, former whaling stations, incredible scenery and prolific wildlife. Weather permitting we will have 3 full days to explore this island. A huge colony of king penguins is the highlight of his part of the journey. On nearby islands we'll hope to spot wandering albatross in their nesting grounds. Known for its brutal whaling and exploratory history, this 170 km long and 40 km wide island is considered the gateway to Antarctica and was the center of the huge Southern Ocean whaling industry from 1904 to 1966. The famous captain James Cook was the first to land on South Georgia on January 17, 1775 and named the island after King George III. During the 62 years of whaling activities, any number between 183 whales the first year and the record 7825 whales in 1925-1926 season were killed annually for their oil. Whales weren't the only animals hunted for their oil at that time. A total of 498,870 seals - mostly giant elephant seals- were also slaughtered. Since the end of whaling activities 40 years ago, wildlife has slowly returned to the island. Today the island's wildlife is extraordinary, not only in it's variety, but also for its sheer abundance. South Georgia is home to roughly 300,000 elephant seals, 3 million fur seals, and 25 species of breeding birds, including wandering albatrosses. The gravel beach at St. Andrews Bay has a king penguin rookery of 100,000. The British explorer Sir Ernest H. Shackleton landed at King Haakon Bay on the southwest coast after the 800-mile journey in a 20-foot open boat from Elephant Island. They proceeded to hike the ice covered mountainous terrain, arriving to Stromness whaling station on May 20, 1916. Shackleton returned to South Georgia in 1922 for one last assault on Antarctica but passed away after suffering a major heart attack while in his cabin. He was buried at the whaler's cemetary at Grytviken station at the request of his wife.

Day Twenty One: Tuesday, November 05 - At Sea- the Drake Passage 
Breakfast: Breakfast on board the ship

Morning: Today you will start the 400 mile crossing of the passage that bears the name of the 16th-century English explorer Sir Francis Drake. The MS Expedition is at home in this part of the Southern Ocean, known for the unimpeded never ending fetch of the winds that encircle the Antarctic. At some point on the second day we cross the Antarctic Convergence, a meeting of cold polar water flowing north and warmer sub-antarctic water moving in the opposite direction. It is the largest biological barrier on earth and is marked by a change in temperature, salinity and nutrient levels. The north flowing Antarctic waters predominantly sink beneath southward moving sub-antarctic waters. While further south associated areas of mixing and upwelling creating an ocean very high in marine productivity. When we pass this zone, we have entered the most nutrient rich waters on earth- the Southern Ocean.

Lunch: Lunch on board the ship

Afternoon: Continue sailing the Drake Passage
