And then there were three..

To continue briefly - we get up on the Endeavour and have a wonderful
time. Try to make contact with the ships that might have been coming in
to visit us, but they are not in the area, so the Endeavour keeps us on
board for the whole day - cruising through the Lemaire channel, one of
the most scenic spots, and down to Petermann Island where we land and
see Adelies and the Oceanites people who are studying them. The sun
comes out, the pack ice is amazingly thick, we are crunching through it,
the views are stunning. Try not to spend too much time on deck as we
have no sunglasses or sun screen with us. We have endless cups of tea on
board sitting in the library, fabulous food, and a sauna! End up getting
back to Lockroy at about 11.30pm, and a sad quick packing-up for Tudor.
Endeavour has agreed to take him to Ushaia to fly home, so that the
Klebnikov didn't need to wait around to try and collect him. I am busy
counting out money and adding up credit card slips - the zodiac driver
is waiting - Tudor comes to help as I am all fingers and thumbs in the
cold and dark. And he is off at midnight into the beam from the ship's
spotlight. The three of us go to bed feeling at bit sad and quiet.
