The turquoise blue ice took my breath away! Other photos gave me other varied emotions...I am so glad the whaling machinery is rusting away! The seals are adorable, as are the penguins! And that church...so charming. Such a sweet spot of faith in such a desolate but beautiful place. You were there in summer, of course. I imagine it would be more than miserable in the winter!A Colorful Worldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06890388727784255219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7310317081887553860.post-65167592364540022612013-03-01T02:16:30.179-05:002013-03-01T02:16:30.179-05:00The blue of the ice is so amazing.

Such awful things that man is capable of for the almighty dollar.
