Q. What was your most memorable cruise and why?

A. Two back-to-back cruises I did in the Southern Ocean during the Austral spring and summer of '97-'98. The extremes in the weather, the ice bergs, the Southern Lights, the midnight sun, the birds and occasional mammals, New Zealand, plus the people all combined to leave lasting memories. It was an incredible time, but I hope that I never have to go back.

Cheers,
Chris
