Comments
Good steaming all day yesterday with continued wildlife and icebergs to keep us entertained. We passed North of the Shackleton Ice Shelf during the afternoon and many large bergs were spotted out the front of the shelf, possibly grounded in the shallower water. We are now steaming for Casey and hope to be there to start operations in the late afternoon. Yours Aye Robb and Simon
