After an amazing morning with
almost a million King penguins at Saint Andrews, we ate brunch onboard the Ocean Nova
while it re-positioned to Maiviken, South Georgia.
A group of us were dropped off there for a couple of hour hike over the hills
into the former whaling village of Grytviken.

After a fun couple of hour hike, we arrived mid-afternoon at
