boxes, boxes everywhere!

We have got onto a routine of a 20-minute run round deck 5 followed by some yoga before breakfast. It’s great to have Rachel as a running partner, there is also a Norwegian lady who we have teamed up with, and tomorrow we will get the boys out too! We will have to see how long we can keep going for, until the seas get too rough for it to be safe I suppose. The days are flying by, I went to a lecture about the sub-antarctic islands, and tonight they screened a couple of episodes of David Attenborough’s Life in the Freezer. But we are still all a bit tired from missing a night’s sleep on the plane, and look forward to lying down at night.
We went to investigate all our boxes of cargo today, and weeded out the ones we will need for the on board shop that we will do after South Georgia. Was pleased to see that my box of personal stuff was there – I had wondered whether it might still be in Rick’s spare room, but didn’t like to ask!
More bird-watching this afternoon, plus reading the manual for the new camera I bought in duty free, and the draft Operations Manual for Lockroy. Then cocktails and dinner. It’s a hard job, but someone’s got to do it!
