Comments
A fun afternoon and evening last night, with a visit from King Neptune and his Queen, plus usual grumpy acolytes, doling out huge servings of ... not quite sure, but it wasn't pretty. The evening trawl deck BBQ was a real hit, and lots of fun watching the icy world pass us by whilst standing around the heat beads. A beautiful calm morning today, with some majestic bergs near our track providing delightful distraction to biosecurity gear cleaning and helicopter safety briefings.
Regards, Doug & Andrew
