Comments
Spent most of last night and this morning rocking and rolling in open water with swells to 2 metres. Now back in the outer pack ice and subsequently a lot smoother should see those that missed breakfast turn to for lunch. Field training commenced this morning and continuing this afternoon for those disembarking at Mawson and Davis. According to Mawson SL ice conditions look favourable for a visit but will know more when we can get an acceptable satellite image. Best regards, Micky & Brett.
