Part 18 in my Journey to Antarctica. If you enjoy the stories and photos, please comment and let me know!
It's rush hour on the Penguin highways in Antarctica. Leading them to and from their nests, the penguins waddle their way down these efficient routes until they find a problem, usually in the form of another penguin heading in the opposite direction.
They would sit in place , pretending the other wasn't there. Ignoring each other to have a battle of wills, until finally one gave in or got bored and decides to climb the snow bank on the side.
Gentoo Penguin.
On and on the highways go. From the tips of hills to the ocean itself.
Tips of the Hills.
Ocean Itself.
With the amount of traffic they are getting on these highways, they'll soon have to add a lane.
Beautiful photos and thank your replying to my email confirming that you are really Dan from dansandoval.com
Jen Secret Service! ;-) That is such a beautiful move. And this quite a find. Awesome post from @dandoval. Resteemed.

That was a nice piece with amazing pictures of these pengiums.
Keep it up
Thanks! I really appreciate it when people take the time to comment.
Very good post @dandoval ! Every time when I look at penguins I remember the Madagascar movie when they are shown as a group of gangsters .
Thanks! They are really funny creatures, actually. The way they waddle.
They are very cute)
They really are!

Awesome description, Dandoval ☺👍
Haha. Thanks. They really are pretty funny animals.
cool :)
Great Pics @dandoval, especially the first of the sliding penguins!
Upvoted!!
I take pictures too, I did 2 recent posts on Prague and Cambodia and an older one with a summary of few places.
I would love to hear what you think about them if you have time!
@belgarath
You have some really nice shots that could do with a little more processing in my opinion, but your posts look good!
Thank you very much! What would you advise for processing? Any software and guide?
Very nice picture. One question. Where do you sleep in the Antarctica? Tent? Other accommodation?
Ah. That will be a little bit of what I talk about in the next post or two. Stay tuned!
Penguins are beautiful. I've watched them pick the most shiny pebbles to give to their mate, they are lovely creatures. Great photo's!
Oh yea! I saw that! In the next couple of posts Ill put a couple of photos that didn't quite make it into the narrative, and that will be one of them!
yay! So cute!
Omg so cuteeee!
They really are!
I'll follow you. and follow me.
I love penguins, they are amazing and special animals for the theme of monogamy. I did not understand why they walked so many km? I do not know if they should spend time out of the water.
Well, they spend most of their lives in the water, but must come out for breeding.
I like it this post
Im glad to hear that!
Penguins are one of the most beautiful animals in the world. Just look how clean and proper they look wow

Beautiful and pretty penguin in Antarctica. Made to see it
Great photography :)
Thank you! Hope you stay tuned to see more!
Definitely!
Hey! Another amazing post! I just posted another Voyage into my life journey. Check it out! It's about my travels across the world! I've also been to the artic! Hope you like it!
From what I understand, there are very few animals in Antartica nowadays. That is amazing considering the fact that this continent was once not in the 'deep freeze' that it is in now at the South Pole. Like your photos.Thank you!
There are very few animals for a place that size, but at the same time, there is lots of life in the water, especially considering the extreme weather.
Interesting!
theyre so adorable!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow, @dandoval! Amazing photos. Experiencing the Antarctica must be a dream come true!
It absolutely was. I hope you keep tuned in to see more!
Oh yes, I will :)
Really enjoying looking at your work :)
It's my dream to go there. Did you find a scientists expedition to lower your travel cost ? Or did you pay the hard price ?
Enjoy this beautifull place not yet detroyed by humans
I was actually on assignment shooting people for travel brochure. I got extremely lucky to have been given the opportunity.
Thank you for sharing this wonderful trip with these very touching people. Your photos are magnificent
Thank you. I really appreciate you saying that.
That's so beautiful - how does one even get to Antarctica? :-D
Well, if you read the previous posts, you can find out! Heh.
Haha ok will do :) following you
I would die to photograph these little guys!
Its much more satisfying to do it while living, though, dont you think? ^_^
What can I say? @dandoval, your pictures are fantastic, I opened your article and after the first shot my fingers jumped to the follow button, then upvote, can't wait to see more. I love photography, although I only have my phone to shoot with!( One day I'll save to get a camera again!)
Thank you. I really appreciate you saying that. I really hope to hear more of what you think of the following photos and also the next story I'll be starting.
