Chip’s Notes

Our vessel was the Ocean Diamond. Follow our Antarctic Expedition here in the Vagabond Journal. A magnificent experience and I was very happy with Quark, one of the leaders in Antarctic explorations. I loved their enthusiasm and dedication to the history, marine biology, geology and their attention to detail. Food was excellent. Staff, terrific. The ship itself was a bit tired, but after this voyage was being renovated.
