Comments

Arrived at anchor to fly passengers aboard and ashore at 0845. We were sailing north for the ice edge by 1130, with just a short stop to bring aboard a forgotten bag and return another! Many thanks to all the expeditioners and heli crew ashore and aboard the Aurora Australis, and to the crew of the Aurora Australis for their fantastic efforts yesterday and today. Regards, Andy and Susan
