What is happening?
How old are you?
And what number continent is this that we're going to?
That's seven.
Good job, buddy.
Okay, what's seven?
The seventh continent.
Do you know what that means?
No.
You've been all over the world.
You're only... how old are you?
Five or six.
Six.
And this is the seventh continent.
Where are we going?
Tell dad where we're going.
Loud.
I don't know where we are, but it will be okay.
Can I bring it to me after, Jordyn?
Yep.
Is it recording?
Yep.
All right, have fun.
Good morning, girls.
Don't say like...
Two, one.
We're in Falcon Island.
Good morning from Falcon Island.
So this is video one of three of our video series on our journey to Antarctica.
First, the Falkland Islands.
Second, South Georgia.
And third, Antarctica.
This is our spring semester in Antarctica.
What animal are we going to talk about this week?
Arbor trash.
What type middle?
Um, brown eyes.
No.
Black brown.
Some of the fondest memories of the Falkland Islands.
That trip back in, what was it?
2019.
Callie was just past one years old and he was just born.
You, uh, mark your words.
Well, I knew you would come back.
It's just far.
But, but, I'm not mad about it.
Not at all.
The Falklands are...
Today.
Okay, what should we do first?
Okay, how did we get here, Manila?
Well, where did we have to go?
We went to Florida.
Oh, Jordyn, but we can't...
And that's why it won't work.
That's a good question, Manila.
Wait, what?
We were so tired, but it's definitely worth it.
We are back with Lindblad Expeditions, this time on the National Geographic Explorer.
I love this boat.
Correction, it's a ship.
Because we learned a ship is the type of boat that has other boats on top of it.
If a boat carries other boats, it is considered a ship.
It's just a boat, it's a boat.
We're on a ship.
You hold on to it just to the rim.
I love the photos.
I hope we see a penguin.
So many awesome photos.
You're loving it, huh, Dorothy?
Oh, that was us.
One, two, three, go.
That one's for me.
That's really nice.
This one's for me.
Whoa, look.
Whoa.
Hey, you can see the water.
This is a really big room.
Is that where I'm supposed to be?
This one's for me.
This is my bed, my bed.
All right, Dorothy gets first pick.
This one?
No.
Actually, yeah, I like this one.
I'll do that bed.
Mena, you okay with this bed?
Uh-huh.
We also have delivered a parka that you will find in your cabin,
which we recommend try it on immediately.
What do you think?
Do they fit?
Yeah.
All right, show us, walk.
Wait, wait, wait.
But this wasn't our first time on a Lindblad ship.
Remember the last one with the igloo on top?
We slept in the igloo in the Arctic.
We never shared about it.
Mom, where are you taking us?
This is awesome.
Push baby.
Two for everyone.
You guys ready to sleep like this?
Hey, guys, there's a few important things to know.
One, there's an iceberg.
Iceberg.
One, the sun never goes down, so it's going to be this bright all night.
That's why we have those iMacs.
Two, the hot tub's all ours, and there's a sauna and showers for us.
We're going to do it all.
Three, mom thinks she's going to bail.
So we've got to cut off her extra tight to keep her warm and not let her go.
No tooting!
Oh, it's Vanilla.
Vanilla.
No tooting in the igloo.
Danger, danger.
No windows.
Hey, for reals.
New rule, no tooting.
It's not me.
It's cool if you didn't.
It's not cool, it's okay.
It's not cool, though.
For sure it's not cool.
It is cool.
Let's go to the hot tub.
We don't have a swimsuit.
I brought your swimsuit.
She's the best.
I'm excited.
Babe, it was a queen-size bed for bags full.
There were no like, blinds, and it does not get dark.
It doesn't get dark, not at all.
So we just slept in the sun throughout the night.
And you left us.
She left.
Yo, I slept in that bed for at least three hours.
That's a win.
She left.
It's perfect.
Please believe me.
I smell the alcohol.
You wanna keep snoozing in the igloo,
or you wanna go get breakfast?
I wanna keep snoozing.
Callie, you wanna keep snoozing in the igloo,
or go get breakfast?
Keep snoozing in the igloo,
or go get breakfast?
I think she wants to keep snoozing.
Look at that note from mom.
She left, she left.
The writing's on the wall.
Please believe me.
I smell the alcohol.
The only thing I know,
is that we're in too deep.
And maybe when she's dead and gone,
I'll get some sleep.
Sister tax.
Now let me check if it's poisonous.
What's your favorite part about this boat?
Penguin.
I love the bridge.
I love going on the bridge.
And what is the bridge?
The bridge is the, it's not like a bridge
where you like fly across.
It's a bridge,
it's called a bridge,
but like you sit on this bench
and they give you binoculars
and you just try to look for animals.
What's your favorite part
about the boat?
No!
Put stuff in it and you can live in it.
It is called a cabin.
Good job.
My favorite part is,
well I like to explore
all around,
so we all explore around it.
It's very easy to get lost in there.
I'm the best.
Hey you!
What you doing there bro?
What's your favorite part of this ship?
I think our room is just super cozy.
I feel like I actually haven't explored
the ship as much as I should.
One, because I've been afraid of getting motion sickness.
And two, but I've just been like super cozy
and every night you and I lay down
and we watch the X-Men.
We watched all the X-Men
over the last week.
Yo, unpopular opinion,
X-Men movies are better than Marvel movies.
Oh, a thousand times over.
I don't think we'd ever just watch the X-Men movies.
They're great.
What's your favorite thing about the ship?
I really like the gym.
They have this gym with just this panoramic view
out the back of the boat. It's awesome.
Wait, wait, wait.
Eva.
Okay, the best part of this trip
is that actually
a gal who was on our same
Arctic. She was in the Arctic with us.
What is it?
It's your zodiac driving permit.
Oh, that is awesome.
That is super cool.
And not like on purpose, but just so
the stars just perfectly aligned that she was also
brought on board this ship at this time.
And she loves our kids.
I've never seen somebody so good with our children.
She is a human encyclopedia
matched with Mary Poppins.
How good she is with our kids.
And she just hangs out with them all day
teaching them endlessly about the wildlife
and nature and all the things.
She's awesome.
Let's talk about the Falcon Islands.
I like it.
But it's windy, windy, windy.
I like it.
He's trying to scoot away from you.
We're at Stanley on the Falcon Islands.
I've been here since 2019
when Callie learned.
Oh, stop.
Look what he found.
That's just like what Manila got when he was your age.
We got
surprises
for our report
for school.
Don't crack it.
Okay.
What does yours do?
When I see a cracker, I
I'm going to do my
Super Mash Monster Mash.
No, no, no.
I'm teaching how to do my Super Smash
Monster Mash.
Faster than
a bunch of crunchy carrots.
Have you ever seen
a sheep be shorn?
What is happening?
Whoa.
Are sheep some of the coolest
animals out there?
We just haven't spent a lot of time around sheep.
Farm animals in general.
I have a new motto.
I need to approach everything in life
with the same zeal and zest
and glee, leaping
glee as a sheep leaving
its pen.
I think so.
You got it, Callie.
Would you rather play
a sexy
phone?
Okay.
Would you rather play a sexy phone or what?
Or a harp.
Harp or sexy phone?
Sexy phone.
Harp.
Which one for you?
I'm with Callie on this one.
This might not sound impressive
because there's like 12 people on this island
but I thought it was pretty cool.
I heard like prop stuff.
You know you're cool when you're grocery shopping
on the Falcon Islands and you're bumping into someone
in the parking lot and they're like,
Hey, I know you.
And I'm like, oh maybe.
No, we hung out last time you were on the Falcon Island.
The silver Defender that was right there?
I was taking a video of it
and then he drove right up to me
and I was like, oh shoot, I've been caught.
So I stopped recording and he pulls up
and he rolls down his window and gives me like a
I go over
and he goes, am I crazy
or did I drive you to the penguins five years ago?
It was that dude.
Oh my gosh, how funny.
Remember he was like the soccer fan?
Oh, he was wearing a Tottenham jersey.
Oh, how funny.
He was still wearing his Tottenham jersey.
And he remembered you. Stop.
He's like the bucket people, huh?
The one person we know on Falcon Island.
You ran into him.
And I grabbed Callie and I was like, Callie, come over here
and I pick him up and he goes, I remember
that little girl took her first steps.
There she did.
How funny.
Small island.
Small place here in a
small town here in Falklands.
I love that. I'm so glad you saw her.
I was stoked.
I go, what are you doing today?
And he's like, I'm a little pressed for time.
I was like, all right, we'll see you.
What are the odds?
I mean, the odds are like one in a hundred.
They're not that low.
That was cool.
Garrett is
1000% obsessed with
the vehicles in Falkland Island.
Not the vehicles, the Defenders.
The vintage Defenders that are everywhere.
They are so dope and we used to have
the same
dope car. You can't blame me for it.
It was rusting on the ocean
at our home in Hawaii.
If one of our children starts rusting, are you going to get rid of that?
There's blue, there's green, there's silver, there's
purple.
Green.
There's so much Defenders.
So many of our cars and
they made Dad really sad
that we sold our old car.
I've watched you sleeping for a while.
I'd be the father of your
child. I cannot
live without you.
You know what's the beauty?
You know what's the beauty of traveling with kids?
We went to the Falkland Islands and
what did they want to do?
They wanted to find a playground
because remember last time?
Hey Mom, remember there was a really good playground?
That's what you remember about the Falkland?
Right there. I don't see it.
Oh, right there.
Parkour.
You got it bro.
The biggest slide in the Falkland Islands.
That's what you remember about the Falkland?
Yo, this playground though,
they upgraded it.
It was a really
solid playground.
Oh!
Things just got real.
Wait, wait, wait. Remember that video though?
Okay, you're going to have to push him
but don't fall off, Dorothy.
Here comes Mom.
You got it, Kai. Hey, don't give up.
See the rope above you?
Just grab that with one hand.
There you go.
Now pull yourself up.
Perfect.
And you did it.
Now you come down the slide. Easy peasy.
Oh geez.
Are you alright?
Yes.
One day when the tonguing is done
we'll take our leave and go.
So the last time we were on a Lindblad ship
it was like their brand new one.
This one's a little bit older and I love it.
I love the vintage because it's just cool.
It's super homey.
I was a little worried that we'd get a little seasick
because down here near the South Pole
the ocean is crazy.
The Drake Passage is notorious for being
rough.
But we got these.
We got stickers.
And we got these.
Hasn't been too bad. Knock on wood.
Still got a lot more to go.
Props to this boat because I'm looking out the window
and the ocean is crazy and this boat is
taking it on and it's a smooth sail.
It is a smooth sail.
It's a great boat.
Look what I packed for you.
Yes.
I'm so excited.
Testing. Okay.
You can see.
Today is a big day people.
So today
we're going to go. Well we're in Antarctica.
We're in
Falkland Islands and we're about to
go over here
to New Island.
We're going to ride on the Zodiac
right there.
And we're going to see Rockhopper
Penguins and Albatross.
So let's get ready people.
Get ready for the montage.
We're on our first voyage.
Hey guys.
What's the plan?
Where are we going? We're going to
New Island to go find
Rockhopper Penguins.
I forgot.
We're in New Island going to find Rockhopper
Penguins and Albatross.
What do you say to the boat?
Adios.
It's super cool.
On the ring search out there
about 6 feet.
6 feet. That's like
the same size as dad.
Or they can be even bigger.
Which is crazy.
I'm blue.
Hello.
Give the bird some space.
That's fine.
Let's let him go around.
That's so cool.
Look at him.
Give him some space. That guy is so cool.
Albatross stayed
in the nest for so long.
12 months.
After that they don't
step foot on land.
They don't step foot on land
for at least a year.
The babies are grey
and super fluffy.
Let's talk about the boat more.
Socks. Wait, no boat.
Wait, what?
What's another shoe?
A blankies.
What color are the girls
and what color are the boys?
Girls are brown.
Okay, which one is a girl and which one is a boy?
Is the white girl or boy?
Which one is white?
Um, boy.
And girl is brown.
I know that.
So why is boy brown than girl?
Oh yeah. This is called the car car.
It has like a little pocket right here
to like hold it.
Or like storage.
How close did it come to you?
Really close.
These are car cars.
Kind of like eagles.
And they can come super close to you.
Be careful.
Don't be scared.
You feel safe right now?
I'll leapfrog her.
No, you'll leapfrog both of us.
Are you okay?
Oh, we got him.
Help him up.
You okay, bro?
Brush off his face.
Do you see it anymore?
Yes, it's right there.
One time.
Just to learn.
Oh, what?
Alright, thank you. This is video one of three.
