Block Lake
Block Lake (54°10′S 36°43′W / 54.167°S 36.717°W / -54.167; -36.717Coordinates: 54°10′S 36°43′W / 54.167°S 36.717°W / -54.167; -36.717) is a lake in Karrakatta Valley, west-northwest of Husvik Harbor, South Georgia. The lake was dammed and served as a reservoir for the old Husvik whaling station. It was named in 1990 by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee after William C. Block, invertebrate zoologist, head of the British Antarctic Survey Terrestrial Zoology and Microbiology Section since 1976, who worked many summers on South Georgia and on Signy Island.

The Lake
Hey you
Over there
Won't you help a stranger
That's a sorry sight my friend
It's not me
To make a fuss
It's just that the water's cold
And i can't feel my legs
Help me out
Don't let me drown in here
Can't you see
I'm gonna die in here
Please excuse
That outburst
I'm a little scared
I don't know what came over me
What's wrong
Don't close your eyes
I don't want to hurt you
I just need a little help
Help me out
Don't let me drown in here
Can't you see
I'm gonna die in here
Swim he says
Why do you say these things
One last chance
