Fortuna Bay

A good landing. From the southern end of the beach, the more adventurous walked
across the ridge to Stromness, following Shackleton's route. The less adventurous
were landed at the other end of the beach, and once past the fur seals, enjoyed
an easy stroll across the plain among the king penguins and reindeer.
