The previous night’s campers were to be repatriated at 6.30am this morning. Breakfast was served from 6.30am to 7.30am, initially, and lengthened to 8.30am. I was up at 6.00am with a few aches and pains of yesterday’s hike, and was still sleepy.

The ship navigated through the night. We were close to the Lemair Channel and were heading for Peterman Island.
