Here’s a cute link….and as always for me…a tear jerker

“Realizing there are no words to convey the wonder and mystery of Antarctica — what it is like to be amidst such an abundance of wildlife that is totally unafraid of humans — I pass along this video, taken on the sub-Antarctic island of South Georgia, showing a remarkable and loving interaction between a young (”weaner”) elephant seal (probably weighing 300 pounds) and the lovely young woman who was the “hostess” on our ship (ran all the hotel aspects of our voyage, but also loved to get on land and be with the animals). Video was taken by her husband, who was also our excellent chef. This video was taken last November — so not on our just completed voyage — but at a place we have been– and probably one of my favorite places on this planet. This video says it all. Watch it first for the seal, and then again for the penquins in the background.”
