An Antarctic Voyage

 

Part 2

 

16 October 2006

 

Yesterday we anchored at Macquarie Island to drop some equipment. It is a beautiful Island - 35 km long by 5 km wide. Saw plenty penguins and seals on the shore and two killer whales behind our ships. Beautiful creations of Almighty.

We sailed from Mac Island for CASEY in the afternoon of 15 October. The weather started getting worse and I got sea sick - had to take pill.

16 October - The weather started getting better. I had grilled fish at dinner - very tasty.
