Our first zodiac landing in three days had us all excited to get off the ship and onto some land! Turret Point is named for its rock structures that look like turrets. Here we find elephant seals in great numbers…again, belching and farting and sneezing mucous over each other. We also see Adelies for the first time- these penguins have a distinctive white eye. There are also chinstraps around. From our landing point we also see a marvelous volcanic island (Penguin Island), the maroon colour of the scoria is distinct (though possibly not well captured due to lack of light).
