Comments

Unloading of cargo continues and everyone is making the most of the sensational weather. Many fingers are crossed that similar conditions will present themselves in the next couple of days so we can complete the refuelling part of the resupply.

While all the ingoing expeditioners on station were settling into their new home, the few remaining on the ship enjoyed a beautifully still evening basked in surprisingly intense midnight sunlight.

REGARDS: Sharon, Fred and Kerry
