Plenanue island - Morning kayak through the icebergs -amazing!  Came close to base of icebergs and several crab eater seals and one weddel seal.
 
 
Kayak about 3 hours in windy conditions. Was really tough to paddle back to the ship against the wind. 






Amazing lunch - funny how hungry you are after 3 hours kayaking. 

Decision was made at 2pm to not land at Petermenn island and to continue south instead. Heaps of Icebergs, bergy bits and brash ice on top of the sea -amazing! 
lecture @ 3pm on Antarctica by Dick Cameron the Glaciologist. Very interesting lecture and Dick is always entertaining!
