Finally - my Antarctica pictures are online

[Penguinlady[$]]

Well, it took four months, and it's still not perfect, but the other day I got tired of working on it and decided to post it. So here it is:

Sign in to Kodakgallery.com create photo gift, make digital Kodak prints, and more

I hope this link works. Please excuse the occasional typos, and the fact that the ones at the very end are out of sequence -maybe some day I'll get back and do the final tweak.

Until then, enjoy!

Link doesn't work

[emeleel]

Waaaaaahhh! It's saying "Album Not Found"!

Yikes - what do I do now? Kodak Gallery has an invitation function, but you have to list the e-mails of each person you want to invite. I hoped that by copying and pasting the URL of the album page, it would create a viable link.

Maybe if you go to KodakGallery.com and look for my album? My name there is my e-mail address, Adeliegentoo@yahoodotcom.

I don't know how else to do it, without collecting everyone's e-mail address...

Margaret, send the invite to yourself. Copy THAT link and paste it here.

Good idea! Here it is:

I hope it works - let me know!

It works. I'm looking at a pic of Tierra del Fuego right now.

I'm only through about half of them... I'm going to wait til the kids are up. OMG... it looks just like Happy Feet! Only, you know, I didn't expect grass.

And is that you in those pics? You are STUNNING!

[Penguinlady[$]]

Why would you look at that when there are those magnificent penguins to look at???

It was SUMMER, Pippa - a balmy high-30s-low-40s. We even took our jackets off on land a few times. It was cold and windy at sea, but mostly not so on land.

Happy Feet was about Emperors. We didn't get to see them because you have to go in October or November to do so. I'll be doing that in 2008. We saw Kings, Adelies, Gentoos, Chinstraps, Rockhoppers, Magellanics, and one lonely Macaroni. I'm one happy girl!

Thanks for the kind words, too!

[erik_kosberg]

Very, very cool pics.

Macaroni is the one with the little eye feathers, right? Robin Williams? All I know about penguins are what I saw in the movie.. but just the hordes of them and then the egg sitting and the little ones...

I'm assuming you are also going to see Surf's Up?

They are gorgeous, Margaret, and so are you! I love the little guy napping on the bag.

No, those are the Rockhoppers on New Island in the Falklands. Macaronis look quite similar, but Rockies have golden eyebrows, while Macs have gold toupees as well as eyebrows. We only saw one Mac, standing in the middle of a Chinnie colony on top of a hill.

Each photo has a caption that tells you what you're looking at.

Most of the "information" in the animated movies is incorrect or incomplete. I prefer documentaries. From what I have read, "Surf's Up" is cute, but I'm not sure I need to see another animation. I'm too much of an info-junkie!

Thanks! Those Fur Seal pups were adorable. They followed us all over the place and were quite fearless.

[emeleel]

Oh, WOW! What great pictures. It looks like a fabulous time.

And you remind me of Shirley Jones.

[wivabef]

Wow! These are like looking through National Geographic! And you are adorable!

No wonder penguins like you.

Thanks for all your kind comments. We just returned, at 1:00 am this morning, from Alaska, and I'm just catching up on everything. No penguins there, though...
