Antarctica was definitely the biz. We had to go all the way to Chile to go there, which seems silly since we're right next to it. I'd like to do a trip from here: one company does trips using a Russian icebreaker. You get to see a different part of Antarctica (Shackleton's hut etc) and I would love to do that crossing and also see the subantarctic islands. If there's one thing we're not short of in this part of the world, it's water:). I feel your Texas pain as it's always weird for me visiting somewhere that's not close to the sea. It always feels as if there's something missing.
Living aboard does seem ideal. Wistful sigh.
Thank you for the Stephen Taber link! That sounds fantastic and something I would love to do, so I'm putting it on my list. I was going to be doing something similar this year in Croatia, followed by a week on a private charter cruising the Greek islands. Sigh again.
