After an incredible and literally sickening two-day cruise from the tip of South America to Antarctica, Beall found a beautiful, but foreboding, land of seals, albatrosses, and four varieties of penguins. Antarctica is a land of superlatives: coldest, remotest, highest, driest, and most uninhabitable continent. No vegetation, but lovely icebergs and glaciers. Come see the wonderful pictures from Beall’s visit to this fascinating continent!	11	12
