Weather: 4 deg. Light wind and sunny for a start then became overcast with patches of sun.  

Three lectures during the day and on arrival at the Possession Island conditions were unsuitable for landing so proceeded to plan B.  That too failed due to too much sea ice, current and ice-burgs.  Stunning for the visitors though. Left Antarctica and a most informative experience with more land stops than most of the trips, according to staff.  Best weather too.

Stolen pics of NZ's Scott Base that we didn't see

Reroute to Possessions

Possessions

Since there was good place to beach on the Possession Isls. this is Plan B from Cape Adare
