Comments

We had a birthday on board yesterday. Chef Eric made a mini crepe cake which was well received along with a rousing chorus of happy birthday. Another restless night for some rolling around in their bunks. Most expeditioners are now making it down to the galley for meals. We had a short all expeditioner briefing this morning to discuss disembarkation with everyone managing to fit into the rather small recreation room. Our estimated time of arrival is now 1700 hrs today at Macquarie Island.

REGARDS: Martin and Mark
