Day 5 : 13 December 2010

Hello All

We were very surprised last night to spot our first iceberg at a very northerly latitude of 46°S. We came across some more this morning...what does this mean? Why are the icebergs so far north this year?

The westerlies are pushing a bit more now, but it is still all very moderate with us shipping only minimal spray over the starboard gunwale.

This morning a helicopter safety briefing was held and all systems tested and this afternoon we are looking forward to some of the presentations from all the various professionals onboard.
