HUGE Icebergs!

Since leaving the South Atlantic/Antarctic area I have tried, and failed, on many occasions, to describe the shear size of the Icebergs that can be seen down there. Thanks to NASA Visible Earth I can now just show people this photo and let them figure it our for themselves.

To give an idea of the scale, the island is South Georgia which is approx’ 100 miles (160km) long and 20 miles (32km) wide. Just imagine how much vodka you would need to go with these lumps of ice!
