Comments

We are continuing to tidy up and consolidate our gear in preparation for our arrival in Fremantle. Today we will be collecting our AAD issued clothing kit. Much of the clothing we are issued by the AAD to keep us safe and warm in Antarctica is returned so it can be laundered and reissued next season. These include items in our survival bags; Baffin boots, micro chains, lower, mid and outer layers, shell jacket and pants, snow goggles. We also have other clothing such as quilt lined jackets, pants and hoods.

Our estimated time of arrival in Fremantle is 0600LT on Saturday 4 March.

Cheers
Leanne and Jacob
