Expedition to South Georgia (Antarctica)

[font color=\'#000000\']Hello,
I am planning an expedition to South Georgia for landscape and wildllife photography.

South Georgia is a magic place with millions of Penguins, Albatrosses, Elefant Seals, Mountains, Glaciers and so on.

If I can find 4 more people we could charter a yacht on our own and make this to once in a lifetime experience. Everything is planned for October to December 2003!

Please contact me by e-mail

Martin

PS. I am not a tour operater, just somebody who is looking for people with the same interest to fullfill a dream....[/font]

[font color=\'#000000\']Make sure you've got _very_ competent people to look after you. South Georgia is beautiful, but also very inhospitable and _very_ remote, with no backup whatsoever. And the Southern Ocean is, well, let's say a bit choppy.  An expedition like this is for extremely experienced people only, unless you go on a cruise ship.

Yes, I have been there (not on a cruise ship)...[/font]
