From Ngaire:

I HAVE READ THE REPORTS FROM FRED AND
LESLIE AND NOT EVEN GOING TO TRY TO ADD
TO WHAT THEY HAVE REPORTED SO FAR.

MONDAY, JANUARY 29TH.
THIS MORNING WAS WONDERFUL .WE
WOKE TO SUNSHINE AGAIN AND AT 8.30 AM
WENT ASHORE TO VISIT ANOTHER LARGE
KING PENGUIN COLONY.

WHAT MADE THIS SPOT SPECIAL WAS THE
FACT YOU COULD WALK UP A SMALL HILL
AND LOOK DOWN ON THE PENGUIN
COLONY, BEACH AND THE GLACIER IN THE
BACK GROUND. A FAST MOVING
STREAM RUNNING BETWEEN THE PENGUINS
ADDED TO THE SCENIC BEAUTY OF THIS
TRULY MAGICAL EXPERIENCE. PENGUINS AS
FAR AS THE EYE COULD SEE. WE WERE
TOLD THERE WERE HALF A MILLION KING
PENGUINS HERE.

IT WAS REALLY WARM AND I PEELED OFF MY
COAT. BY THE END OF THE LANDING A
WIND HAD ARRIVED AND IT WAS QUITE
CHILLY.

BACK ON BOARD WE HAD A GAME OF
POOCH WITH THE BURNSIDES CLEANING UP
ALL THE REST OF US AS USUAL. IT IS A
GREAT CARD GAME REALLY ENJOYING
PLAYING.

OFF TO LUNCH -----FINALLY LAMB CHOPS ON
THE BARBEQUE. HEAVEN IN THE FORM OF
SEVERAL SERVINGS OF PERFECTLY
COOKED LAMB. FOLLOWED BY PEACH ICE
CREAM THAT WAS OUTSTANDING.

WE ARE NOW SAILING TO OUR FINAL
LANDING IN SOUTH GEORGIA, THE WIND HAS
PICKED UP SO IT REMAINS TO BE SEEN IF
WE CAN LAND OR NOT. HAVE MY FINGERS
CROSSED. IF THE LANDING SITE IS
SHELTERED IT MAY WORK BUT THE WAVES
AND WIND ARE TOO HIGH RIGHT NOW.
