Antarctica to Greenland 2004-2008

I've posted some more Google Earth placemarks about voyaging from Antarctica to Greenland. We took a long time to do that; from 2004 to 2008. Along the way we visited Madagascar, Egypt, and even my family's habitat at seamount Alix. And I got qualified in piloting our submersible, I lived in the habitat for a few months, and helped find some artifacts from totally ancient civilizations -- way older than you've ever heard of.

My parents also made a couple of finds that were really important, I think. At least they were important enough that I wasn't even supposed to know about them (but I did :-). I knew they were important when one of the other research ships owned by my family's foundation showed up: the Deception. I don't know that much about it, but it's way bigger than the Scopritore IV. It always shows up out of nowhere; I usually wake up in the morning and there it is, off the starboard side.

Anyway, I hope you like my new placemarks. I think I might have mixed up some of them between the two sets. My new idea is to make a tour so I can even say more about the places I've been; I'll post about it here if I can figure it out.
