Comments

We are still making good time to Hobart and have had a sunny day at sea.
Those strolling the decks or on the bridge observed sooty albatross and short tailed shearwaters throughout the day. The non stop movie marathon continues to roll on in both the D deck theatre and the husky bar. All expeditioners looking forward to tomorrow night's special event; pizza, beverages and various fund raising activities. A non retrievable 'hacky' sack ball lodged in the super structure has caused concern for a group of expeditioners who are now forced to look for an alternate sporting activity.


Regards, Mick, Andy and Karen
