The World!

January 8, 2011   


Today The World came to visit http://www.aboardtheworld.com/ and we went aboard for drinks and to answer questions on what we did on South Georgia. As a gift they gave us lots of freshies including – Grapes, melons, pineapples etc. it is christmas all over again! Also today after taking the government officer Pat aboard a south afican research ship we started on our Maiviken hut renovations. Alastair, Rob, Tommy and myself loaded up with tools and paint and went over to the hut but with rain we weren’t able to paint the hut. Instead we took apart some old science equipment and also helped out with some seal research for Alastair. We also measured up for some new siding for the hut as what is on there is rotten and will do another trip next weekend maybe weather permitting with the new siding which I shall pre cut and paint on base before we lug it 7 km to the hut. Hope you all have a great weekend.

  1. Hi Ashley
    Just thinking about you carrying all that stuff over to Maiviken is it not possible for the stuff to go in the boat and then take it round by sea?

  2. not with all the furries on the beach and in the tussock! We would have to wait till march if we wanted to do that we are going to try out the wheeled stretcher and see how that goes to get the plywood and a new door over there.
