And we’re off……. Back across the wide, big, rough ocean towards Stanley. However its not over until its over and we took full advantage of our last day here in South Georgia. A pre-breakfast landing at Prion island to help with coastal mapping (and see some wandering albatross) and then a post breakfasting landing at Start Point / Salisbury Plain. It started rainy, but the clouds lifted and rain stopped enough to call it a great way to end the trip – tons of king penguins.
And the archeologists pushed it to the wire exploring the site here. The site was described as “well preserved and high potential for future investigation”.
Don’t expect long winded posts as we are crossing, but you can follow our progress on a map! our position is logged every 4 hours
