Comments

As we are moving steadily northward the icebergs are disappearing. Today I can only see one to the south and one to the north. I suspect that by day's end there will be none left to see, only ocean and the birds that are following the ship.

The fog is enveloping the ship which looks a little eerie, like you expect to see King Neptune appear out of the depths of the sea.

Cheers
Leanne & Matt
