• Windy Royal Bay

    February 5 in South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands ⋅ 🌫 4 °C

    We woke up in the middle of the night to very windy conditions. We threw on our clothes and walked into the Explorers Lounge and briefly out onto the deck. The wind is gusting to above 35 MPH.

    We were scheduled for a Zodiak at 9 AM so at the sound of my alarm clock, I turned on the TV to read a notification that due to high winds, all excursions were canceled.

    We had breakfast in the World Cafe.

    We set sail from Royal Bay at about noon. We had lunch at the World Cafe.
