Dear Zelfa, 

First of all, we also wish you a very happy New Year and we want to thank you so much for organising our trip to Antarctica. 

It was an absolutely wonderful experience - truly the trip of a lifetime! The Vavilov was a great ship and the Peregrine crew were just fantastic.

Our cabin was superb and we made some good friends among the fellow passengers. 

Second, thank you for the gifts you left for us at Muriel's. This was completely unexpected, especially after all the effort you went to on our behalf at such short notice. Every detail of the trip went without hitch, including the flight back to Buenos Aires (no charge made by the airline for changing the original booking). 

We had such a fantastic time in South America that we hope we will be able to return one day.  

Many thanks, again , Best wishes
