Comments

We seem to be travelling well and there is an expectant feel around the ship as we draw closer to Tasmania.

Cabin cleaning has begun and people are starting to sort and pack their clothing, kit and bags.

Expeditioner Performance Reports (EPR's) are complete with the exception of the Amy the DVLs (Deputy Voyage Leader), who's role in the nefarious, dubious and somewhat grey undergound group the DFP (Dog Freedom Party) is yet to be determined.

The so called 'Arts Fellows', who have for some time been under the watchful eye of the more morally bound persons on board, have been busted (for want of a more appropriate word), with the ships entire chocolate stash in their Arts Studio! It now makes sense why the ransom note "Free The Dog!" was written in Bahnschrift SemBold!

Meanwhile 'Stay' the fibreglass guide dog has been forced to flee the bridge of the ship for a safer and more relaxed locale, as interest levels were beginning to peak...
