I’ll briefly interrupt my usual string of exciting posts and recaps to deliver a quick public service announcement. If you’ve been following my travels on Instagram then you’ll notice that there’s a few days leg between the destinations I’m writing about and where I actually am (I suspected that might be the case before I even left Australia).
Right now I’m sitting in a coffee shop in Ushuaia, accurately referred to as the end of the world. I’m sipping on a coffee and eating a meringue in the shape of a penguin – it seemed appropriate – trying to write up a few posts. In a few hours my family and I will be boarding our boat to Antarctica, the Greg Mortimer with Aurora Expeditions.

It’s going to be an awesome ten days or so traversing the unpredictable Drake Passage, kayaking around icebergs and visiting penguin colonies. Unfortunately because penguins, whales and seals haven’t installed their own Wifi on the ice and humans haven’t been brave enough to establish fully functioning towns there, I’m not too certain if I’ll be able to update Gab Gets Lost at all. The website may go into a bit of a dormant period but don’t fret, I probably haven’t fallen overboard or been abducted into the depths of the penguin colonies. I’ll write them up all the same and publish them as soon as I’m back!
Wish me well and keep an eye out for some fantastic photos, I can’t wait to be there!
