Port Lockroy
64 49.4 S 63 29.1 W
Traveled today from Hovegaard to Port Lockroy, a former British base, now a museum and tourist stop. Overcast sky and light snow all day. A cruise ship was anchored off the base and after we were secure several zodiacs full of tourist came by to say hello and take photos. I keep thinking of all the slide shows we will be in when the cruise passengers return home.
We will stay here tomorrow and possibly the day after. We only have a few more days before we start looking for a good weather window to cross the Drake. Would like to spend them in the best possible scenic spots possible.
