What is a small cruise ship like that doing down there anyway it looks like a dingy lol . Only massive cruise ships should be allowed down there really with the massive storms that they have in the Antarctic i can only imagine the size of the waves they get down there. Gosh i just imagine what the poor guests would be saying lol thoses pooor people.
