Comments

There has been a hive of activity today as cabins are being cleaned ready for our arrival in Hobart tomorrow morning. We can now see a few islands and the most southern parts of Tasmania. There is a very gentle swell that is providing a very soothing roll of the ship. There are also quite a few expeditioners on the heli deck taking advantage of the warm 17 degree day.

This is my last sitrep and I wish to thank everyone for their contribution to a safe and successful voyage. The teams at Mawson and Davis, Voyage Support, the Aurora Australis crew and the round tripping expeditioners all played a part and their help and support during the voyage is greatly appreciated.

Cheers
Leanne, Simon and Amy
