Comments
At last some Sea ice - But no Bergs yet!! Entering the Ice today and hope to make good progress toward Casey overnight and be in position for a fly off Monday. Saturday on the ship was huge with King Neptune and his merry band inducting a horde, followed by Social occasion # 1 last night on the trawl deck. A multitude of operational Briefings today as we prepare for arrival including helicopter and ops briefs. All well. Regards, Don and Anthony
