As we left the Drake Passage (top left red arrow below) we entered the South Shetland Islands at Deception Island. Over the next several days we cruised to islands around Deception, then down the Gerlache Strait, to more ports south of the Gerlache strait, through the Lemaire Channel, eventually down to 66 degrees latitude, then we made our way back. Some of the most picturesque scenery shots were taken in the Lemaire Channel and Gerlache Strait.

All of us received a certificate certifying how far south we went

but we are still 1513 nautical miles from the South Pole.

Here is how the treaty started and some of its main provisions.
