Comments
A few more whales watched us hurtle by last night. Today: grey weather, rolling ship. Our last big iceberg today at lunchtime (a 2 km long tabular berg)? Perhaps. We’re heading NNE trying to avoid bad weather, and exploit wind and current before the next big low pressure system heads our way.
Regards, Doug and Penny
