This morning, we woke to relatively calm following seas as we continued our journey towards South Georgia Island. We had a great lecture program this morning by some of our naturalists, and in between presentations, guests were encouraged to join us out on deck and on the bridge in search of wildlife.
After lunch, we had some great, albeit short sightings of numerous humpback whales and many seabirds, including wandering albatross and various petrels and shearwaters. Our undersea specialists Christine and Adam showed some incredible footage from their dives in the Falkland Islands, and our onboard Historian Ezra rounded the day off with a talk about Shackleton and the Endurance expedition.
Everyone is excited to reach South Georgia tomorrow, and we’re all praying for kind weather conditions over the next four days!
