A wild and windy night with a rough sea. Lots of creaks and bangs.
A very busy day around the ship. No-one on deck, weather just not nice enough, so every seat taken. Resorted to takeaway coffee to take back to our cabin where at least we could relax, and take in a bit of a film in peace and quiet.
Room service lunch today, just a little something to avoid partaking of this afternoons wine tasting on an empty stomach.
Off to the afternoon enrichment talk by the naturalist on the Arctic, and a bit about the Antarctic. An introduction to what we can expect on this cruise and a guide to the natural history, geography and climate, as well as the extent of the arctic, the Arctic Circle, the tree line and the 10 degree centigrade isotherm.
This evening it’s formal night, not really to our liking to get all dressed up so we avoided it by going up to the buffet for dinner.
It was to be the production show in the theatre but the weather caused cancellation on safety grounds, they will try again tomorrow.
