Comments

It's always a busy day, the day before landfall. We have held the last lessons learned session to capture feedback and help improve operations in the future, returned our Antarctic survival kit and are now cleaning cabins and packing our bags ready for an early arrival in Hobart tomorrow morning.

Rather frustratingly the AAD ships email system has chosen this, our last day to play up! If you have sent an email to anyone on board today with arrival plans or anything of import, be aware that they may not receive it! Call them or use alternative means tomorrow.

We may have intermittent mobile phone coverage from around 10pm tonight onward.

Cheers,
Andy, Vic and Eloise
