Comments
Very quiet on board today, with windy and uninviting conditions outside making a perfect day to watch a few more videos, continue working on reports and also make hats in preparation for tonight’s “Mad-Hatters” special occasion. Safety rounds this morning saw a few volunteers from the expeditioners join the crew, with the aim for expeditioners to become more familiar with various safety aspects of the ship’s equipment. Last night some spectacular footage of Davis station and surrounds was shown in the cinema, along with the station movie.
REGARDS: Karin, Sharon & Lance
