Ice



When I told people that I was going to Antartica reactions fell broadly into three categories: Wow!, Why? and variations on You'll get to see the ice before it disappears.

We were two days moving steadily south in open sea before this first iceberg was sighted. I took a ridiculous number of very bad photos of that slab. As icebergs go, its was pretty plain.



That business about seeing the ice before it disappears travelled with me. I looked very, very hard.
