What an awesome start to the morning here in the #Falklands. The sun is beaming down & hardly a breath of wind. We have the Oosterdam visiting today (approx 2000 pax) so they have a perfect day for their visit.

Boxing Day in the #Falklands rocked as the Royal Falkland Islands Police and veterinary department were called into action as a king penguin decided that it would be just the day to take a mooch around Stanley, even wandering up past the Victory bar before being apprehended 🚔🐧

Christmas or not (& I hope everyone has had a brilliant day) tourism rolls on & we have the Roald Amundsen & Le Lyrial visiting today. It’s a beautiful day here in the #Falklands and I hope all had a great visit & those working shoreside grab a bbq after the vessels leave

I never get fed up with visiting the Jackass penguins (Magellanic) and this evening I think I met one that could shout louder than me . To me it’s a real #Falklands sound😃 🐧

It’s a typical summers day here in the #Falklands (sun/rain & hail with the possibility of thunder & lightning) as we welcome three expedition tour vessels to Stanley. I hope all guests from the Ultramarine, Seabourn Pursuit & Hondius have a great day ashore (despite the weather)

A wee shower passing through on a wonderful Wednesday in the #Falklands

It has taken many,many years (& a shed load of dosh) from the initial idea, to the #Falklands first purpose built care facility to be almost at the point where it is ready to throw open its doors. It didn’t look that big on the drawings- but my gosh, it’s huge 😃

It’s starting to feel a little more like Christmas here in the #Falklands. Even the weather has finally figured we are not in deepest winter 😃

It was an honour to lay the wreath on behalf of the Government & people of the #Falkland Islands as we commemorated the battle of the Falklands (8th Dec 1914). Photo credits T Ormond & S Ferguson

A slightly snowy start to Friday morning here in the #Falklands but it’s all good character building stuff

Although the old Loggerducks had a breeding failure this year we have a grey duck pair with young outside of the office here in the #Falklands which is something that I haven’t seen before. They share the same territory as the Loggers & don’t seem to hit it off

Happy Tuesday to all from us down here in the funky #Falklands

Monday morning in the #Falklands started with sideways sleet and hail from the South (Mount Kent is a little grey) but is now cheering up a bit. We now have a snoring seal and a cat wondering whether it could have it for smoko 😃

A few from today (Sunday) down here in the #Falklands. A day of sun, showers and tourists as the Roald Amundsen was in port. Due to the forecast of showers I decided that the grass cutting would have to wait - I didn’t take much persuasion 🙃 May have to get a 🐑

A few shots of a sleepy elephant seal that hauled up outside of our office on Wednesday here in the #Falklands

An interesting piece written by Andres Montero who was very recently in the #Falklands as part of a Chilean trade delegation. For none Spanish speakers, a good online translation tool will do the job nicely :-) www.eldebate.com/internaciona...

This morning an albatross emerged from the early morning fog/mist here in Stanley harbour in the #Falklands. It was the expedition cruise vessel Ocean Albatros. A big shout out to them and I hope that have an awesome day ashore with us
