Comments
The undulation of the pack ice reminds us that we are not far from the open waters of the Southern Ocean. The advice from the Master to all is to secure cabins and prepare for a bit more movement later today and this evening. This morning's calmer conditions provided for some an opportunity for engine room tours while others were content to pass the sunny morning gazing out in hope of sighting a whale.
