Oh the magnificent winter wonderland of Antarctica! It offers endless fun and amazing travel memories. During my trip I ended up at Jougla Point on Goudier Island, which got me reminiscing about working in Public Relations and had me in awe of the world around me. It's the most remote and amazing continent to see! []
This place served as a reminder to me that travel is really about seeing new places and having amazing experiences and in this fantastic wonderland I was many miles from those busy office blocks of a big city! The commerical world is out of your mind as you wake up in a world of endless snow, strong blizzards, penguins and complete wilderness. Just amazing!
Opposite Jougla Point sits the British Antarctic Base of Port Lockroy, which I was eagerly awaiting. Rather than have Jougla merely passed off as a stepping stone to Port Lockroy, however this place also left a lasting impression on the travelling Northern Irishman. Penguins slid down hills in this remote terrain as nonchalant as you like!
The previous night we docked off the coast of Goudier Island. Our boat was the MS Expedition, a marvellous red vessel, great place to relax on board with Antarctica outside. Just amazing feeling and the next day we were all set for the landing at this place.
You could almost feel the magic in the air as we left the boat behind and headed for the wonder of Jougla Point. Opposite you could also see Port Lockroy, the UK Antarctica Base which was to be the next stop on the trip. []
There were lots of penguins at this remote location, you've kind of got to expect that when you're in Antarctica!! I got a few close up photos of a Gentoo penguin.
Jougla Point was a short and sweet trip and indeed ended up being the quickest and shortest landing on my Antarctica voyage. Enjoy it while it lasts!
