Comments
The rough passage Davis to Mawson was completed late last night with a scenic tour of iceberg alley. The spectacle of a magnificent jade berg and a berg with a enormous arch was enjoyed by those prepared to stay up late, despite the change of ship's time to UT +7.
This morning's first attempt at 'pass the parcel' was thwarted by strong winds.
We wait and keep our powder dry until the next opportunity presents itself.
Cheers
Gerry, Andy and Misty
