Ice Is Nice

Today we are at sea, so we spend most of the day enjoying lectures and reviewing our photographs from South Georgia. There is a lecture called ''Ice is Nice'' and another lecture introducing us to Antarctica. We have dinner with naturalists and ask many questions about the animals and their habits. Our biggest question is if the Drake Passage will be like the low pressure system we dealt with several nights back. The naturalist assures us that it is likely to be similar or perhaps a bit more intense. I try to stay optimistic.
