And may I point out that reading about other countries can be more satisfying that visiting them and risking disappointment. Not only did I know where the Falklands are, I knew where New South Georgia is - Of Whales and Men by Dr Robert Robertson, a wonderful book.

Not to mention Shakleton's Boat Journey . another great book that mentions New South Georgia.
