Weather much improved and the swell has now abated. Those passengers who had no luggage due to missed connections , had it delivered yesterday in Las Palmas and are now looking much happier.
Kevin's lecture on seabirds this morning was quite fascinating but I am still not sure if I could tell one booby from another.
One has to be careful about food as the dining room staff are so attentive and determined that we should all leave the ship far heavier than when we boarded. The food is plentiful and diverse with several choices of entres and mains and always a vegetarian selection. Desserts are wicked. Beer or wine is served free of charge with lunch and dinner and even though the wine is not of connoisseur quality, it is pleasant enough. If one chooses to drink something of a better standard, they are available at a reasonable price.
It is so easy to book trips, the staff is very friendly and helpful and they respond to any and all questions

Mary was super helpful and patient. Answered every question and with candor (answers of “Everything’s equally great” aren’t helpful! 😎).

The trip planner I worked with, Jane, was excellent. She had travelled to Antarctica twice and was the voice of experience as she explained travel options to me. I've travelled internationally for many years for many years for business and pleasure including a number of adventure trips. It is a delight to work with such an experienced planner. I've used Adventure Life for three trips, Costa Rica, Galapagos and upcoming, Antarctica. I highly recommend them.

Clara was great to work with. She presented lots of options and always responded promptly. And she found excellent options within our price range.
