Betty Parker of Mattapoisett stands ashore on the continent of Antarctica at Neko Harbor on the Danco Coast (latitude 64 degrees, 49.5 minutes south, 62 degrees, 52.3 minutes west) posing with a copy of The Wanderer while Gentoo penguins approach in the background. The air temperature was 42 degrees, sea temperature 32 degrees — a beautiful day to land after a rough crossing of the Drake Passage. 3/15/01 edition
