Coming Home

The re‑supply finished yesterday, with most of the fuel finally being able to be pumped onto shore. The summer expeditioners returning home are now on board, swelling the numbers to 79.

The 'Aurora Australis' departed Macquarie Island waters at 6pm last night and we are now on our way to Hobart. Swell is three metres, so time to take a sea sickness tablet. Tried to hold out but my stomach wasn't having a bar of that.

Had our emergency muster this morning and the eradication group is about to meet to debrief on our time on the island.

Getting back into the routine of the ship voyage.
