    Simon: "Albert, do you have any words of wisdom?"
    Albert: "For you? Get that camera out of my face!" 🤣
    All kidding aside, mad respect for Albert for coming to Antarctica on his own at 82. Another example of anything being possible if you put your mind to it.

Your videos are so inspiring and help us that can’t afford to travel as much enjoy the world through your eyes. Keep it up Simon 🙏👍

      @@masud7104 it wasn't that expensive because it was last minute, its that expensive all the time, its normally more than that in fact, upwards of 12-15k even. I am fairly certain that he didnt book this last minute though, thats the story, but he must have booked it ahead of time. Theres literally no way he would coincidentally manage t find an available space on an Antarctic trip that happened to leave at the exact time he needed, thats simply not true. Its a good series, but it was planned much more than hes making out im afraid. Ive been to Antarctica, I know how infrequent the ships leave, and how full they always are.

    Good on Albert, 82 and clearly on top of his game. Reminds me a bit of a couple that had their 50th anniversary in Antarctica on the ship I was on about 10 years ago. Smaller ship too, Drake Passage was rough - but we got longer landings because of the way the rules worked at the time. Each ship had the same amount of time, and a maximum amount of people could land at once. We could do two landings in our slots, while larger ships had to do 3 or 4 so each group was onshore for a shorter time; and the 400+ passenger ships did not do landings.
    Oh, and Port Lockroy is a UK museum and base which is why its a UK post office. Damned nice place on a good weather day. I have to agree with Simon, cameras can't do Antarctica justice. Being surrounded by it, even just from on a ship, is something so different from any screen.

    When you were high fiving, I immediately thought of the High Five'n White Guys: there was a sketch comedy show here in the PNW called Almost Live and that was one of their reoccurring segments. Cheers, Simon!

    Hey simon, with your website, I'll give you a tip. If you type up on the internet how to remove "Powered by Shopify" at the bottom of your store. It will come up with multiple videos. It is extremely easy to remove it.
    Love watching your videos by the way. And can't wait for the next challenge!
