The Good: Tomorrow morning at 6am we fly to Antarctica (unless more weather happens)! Words.... cannot.... !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Bad: We got an email today from Rothera saying that they had got an email from the ship asking if they had any gluten free food.... the ship has none, and the base has none. Apparently all of my emails and assurances were for naught. Surprised? Not one bit. But fear not gentle reader, I shall not waste away whilst at sea.... I got taken out with a BAS credit card and basically bought the entire gluten free aisle in a supermarket. Phew! And BAS are going to do some kind of investigation and send me lots of official apologies (and generally grovel).
The Beautiful: Today we explored a nearby National Park and then visited a museum with replica ships, including Magellan's ship and the lifeboat from Shackleton epic rescue mission from Elephant Isle to South Georgia! I am pretty darn in love with this part of the world!
Miss you fabulous folks! x x x x x x
