 Today we anchored off Wilhelmina Bay and took a Zodiac cruise. The clouds shrouded the mountains making them look like they were overlaid with white cotton candy. In the afternoon, we visited Recess Cove, a first for Silverseas. Norman and I were in the last group to go out and ended up in with a Zodiac to ourselves. Our driver was a very nice young man from Canada who has guided on more than 20 Antarctic cruises. The cove had a remarkable number of whales which were able to watch as the breached and rolled. It is impossible to aptly describe the scenery, the mountains, glaciers, icebergs. The range of color is unexpectedly broad. It is an otherworldly place.
