A 13 day Summer time Antarctic expedition. A dream filled journey with magical landscapes, worldly people, and quirky wildlife. An ice lined romantic dreamland with water sculptures sitting on reflective glass, and tuxedoed jesters at every turn. And so I wake up from this dreamland with a smile on my face and tears in my eyes. For I have lived it but now sit with the realization that the journey is over. The dream has transitioned back into reality. And all I can do now is close my eyes once again and hope to relive the magic. A magic that will linger in my soul for the rest of my days.
