Antarctica - January-February 2006        Deception Island

We awoke in the morning to glorious sunshine. We cruised into Deception Island in early morning and sailed through the narrow entrance to this flooded caldera. The island is an active volcano with its most recent eruption in 1970. The island is horseshoe shaped and surrounded by snow-capped peaks. It was breathtaking.
