On the water all day except for a summit

 After repositioning last night we are in Skontorp Cove where we find a Covid abandoned Argentinian outpost.  After a couple of hours of kayaking around icebergs (amazing), we hiked up a 'snow mountain' behind the very small settlement.  Good experience and exercise to work off the calories consumed three times a day.

In the PM, we repositioned to Neco Harbour and rode the zodiac all around the icebergs, big and small.  More penguins and a humpback whale surfaced.
