Comments

Today we enjoyed glimpses of blue sky and sunshine for the first time in several days. A reduction in ocean swells has granted a reprieve in the rolling motion aboard the ship that had thinned out the queue at mealtimes and sent a few poor souls to their cabin for the duration. Pleasing to see some colour returning to their faces today. Voyage 1 reporting writing and administrative duties are ongoing at pace whilst shipboard planning and preparations for V2 continues, bolstered by the addition of expeditioners from Casey who now adopt their shipboard roles for V2.

Regards,

James, Jenn and Andy
