Well we are off!
This is my first attempt at using the satellite transmitter.
We are cracking along at about 15 knots. First glimpses of wildlife are big gannets swirling around the stern. The MV Via Australis is immaculate, beautifully maintained and I have to say I was surprised at the level of comfort.
We had a warm welcome given to us by the entire crew. The Captain announced that there are 85 passengers onboard from 18 different countries. We are a real mixture of ages, races and creed but there is definitely an air of excitement running through the boat.
Tomorrow morning we arrive at our first stop Ainsworth Bay and hopefully see a beaver damn and Magelland penguins
Just a quick update to see if the Xtra-link Explorer 110 is working.
