Day-13 Update from the Drake Passage
We are currently about 300 km north of the Antarctic Peninsula and “enjoying” strong waves – also known as the Drake Shake.
In a weather app, we saw a… well, slightly concerning forecast for tonight. Extreme storms are expected in this passage, which is why we have already secured our cabins as a precaution.
We also took additional precautions and “positioned emetic containment devices in close proximity to our nocturnal resting areas in order to efficiently manage any unforeseen gastrointestinal reactions without delay.” (vomit bags placed next to the bed 😂)
Of course, we know the crew will get us safely through the night – but that doesn’t mean the rocking will stop.
More updates from the Drake tomorrow… 😅
