Drake Passage - Sea Day

On our sea day there are many required safety and environmental lectures we had to attend. This is for our safety and the safety of the Antarctic environment. All the gear we brought for our excursions had to be inspected and cleaned. Hats, gloves, sunglasses, etc.
Last night it was a calm night in the Drake Passage, they call this experience the Drake Lake. There was some motion, but not too bad. We had much worse on the. Neptune in the Pacific Ocean and going around the Cape in Africa. We did feel a little nauseous , which is odd because for the 4 months on the World Cruise that did not happen. We did take motion sickness medicine just in case. Did the World Cafe for all meal today. A step above the regular cruise ship cafe. Wonderful bakery, meat station with food cooked to order. Seafood station with crab legs. Yummy! We also got the spa for the first time this trip. The snow grotto is broken, which is a bummer.
