Sailing South

This morning, the gale force winds in the Weddell pushed large drifts of ice into our way. The ship therefore sailed back to the West side of the peninsula. Now we are heading South-South-West to find calmer waters and places where we can go on land or kayak.
It was not so bad though as the sail took us past a couple incredibly shaped icebergs.
The sun is shining full-out.
