\"Out<\/dt>\n
Out for a lovely swim in the Antarctic. Photo by Alek Komarnitsky.<\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n

In late January of this year, I was fortunate enough to partake in an incredible Antarctic journey through my company, Natural Habitat Adventures.\u00a0Specifically,\u00a0I was taking part in our exclusive Antarctic Expedition that features a full tour of not only Antarctica but also The Falkland Islands and South Georgia Island. \u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

One of my traveling comapnions was Alek, who is the husband of one of my co-workers. He’s much more savvy with a camera than I and thus, when the trip was done he had thousands of incredible photos to share. After paring down the very best, he’s put a short series of wild pictures on his website.<\/div>\n

PLEASE CLICK HERE TO VIEW ALEK’S AMAZING ANATARCTICA PHOTOS!!<\/a><\/h2>\n

I hope you all enjoy these pictures and if you look closely, I’m in quite a few! And yes, the polar plunge picture is real, no Photoshop. Note that Paul <\/a>on the left of me in that particular photo is actually holding a camera. I’m not sure what his gameplan was… take an underwater photo of all three of us when our core temperatures are below 80 degrees?<\/p>\n

Anyhow, enjoy!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
