Merry Christmas from National Geographic Resolution. We started with an early morning of pushing through some ice in the Weddell Sea. There was a big crowd on the bridge watching the excellent navigation by Captain Martin and the bridge team.
The highlight of the morning was getting ashore and walking on the fast ice. There is something so magical about setting foot on frozen ocean, and the sun was out, adding to the perfect morning. Another great moment was spotting a swimming emperor penguin. It was a quick sighting but made our Antarctic penguin count reach four!
An incredible dinner was put together by the talented galley team and the evening ended with some Christmas carols around the piano on deck eight. It was a memorable Christmas onboard.
