The Drake Passage

January 4, 2023, South Atlantic Ocean ⋅ 🌬 2 °C

20 hours into the drake passage and apparently we have been extremely lucky. If I'm honest, I can't imagine it being any worse 🥲

Luckily sickness has been held at bay thanks to some nifty sea sickness tablets, however, side effects have included falling asleep during 3 lectures today (one of which was mandatory 🤦🏻‍♀️)

After approximately no sleep last night, I'm very excited to reach the south Shetland Islands tomorrow.

Luckily, because the drake has been calm we are ahead of schedule so hope to reach Antarctica tomorrow!Read more
