The journey South...

It's been non stop since I left the UK on 21st Dec to start my journey South but excited to finally arrive at Rothera Research Station today and get off the ship for the first time in a week. A brief stop in Santiago and just over a week in the Falklands gave me a much warmer start to the project than I was expecting but it's great to finally be surrounded by icebergs and glaciers. A couple of days here will be a good opportunity to catch up on some project admin and write up my PhD diary but now I really can't wait to get to Stonington Island. All going well we should be there Friday!
