Comments

We are all grateful on board that the seas settled down last night and this morning they are even calmer. We even are getting more blue skies which always brightens your day. Once again there are some amazing birds flying around the ship. Currently two wandering albatrosses are doing laps, I expect they are enjoying all of the 'goodies' that the ship stirs up.

With the heavy seas behind us the ship turned in a NNE direction with our current course travelling between Australia's Heard Island and France's Kergulen Island. We will be too far away from both of them to see.


Cheers
Leanne and Jacob
