Comments

Our final full day at sea. Lots of packing and last minute sharing of photos and videos taken by the expeditioners and crew onboard.

We're still on target to be home tomorrow morning. The Aurora Australis is scheduled alongside Macquarie No 3 Wharf at 7am tomorrow 18 March.

Cheers

Andy, Margaret and Kate.
