Comments
Making steady progress through first year pancake ice, trending to loose pack. Saw the sun yesterday for the first time since leaving Cape Town, although today dawned substantially overcast with low cloud. Auroral display last night proved a good introduction to the Antarctic. Helicopter Safety and Environmental Briefings this morning. All well, preparing for visit from Australis Rex
