Taking off on a northeast wind







Here are 3 photos from our final night on board the Vavilov. One is rounding Cape Horn, where 30,000 sailors lost their lives in rough waters. We didn.t luckily.
Well, Penquins and Penguettes, we are just about to start our loooong journey home. Both of us wish we were heading back to Antarctica rather than NY but all good things must end. Our flight leaves for Kennedy via Santiago at 1500 hours, arriving tomorrow morning in NY at 0700. A long time in the air.
And so, we shall see you when we see you. It's been a spectacular journey.
