Comments
We have said goodbye to all icebergs and any remnants of Antarctica. The sea and air temperatures have now risen back into the positives. The ship is moving around today – it pitches and rolls and makes it a little uncomfortable but it is all part of the Southern Ocean experience.
There are debriefs and meetings of various kinds being undertaken on our return leg. It is a good opportunity while there is a 'captive' audience to chat about procedures and suggested improvements to processes.
Cheers
Leanne, Simon and Amy
