JT7_4980p.jpg

Svalbard, Norway

On returning from our landing to see the Kittiwake nesting site, the wind had strengthened and increased the size of waves. Janet & I were on the first zodiac going back to the ship and it was a very wet loading! They then moved the loading site a little way down the beach and it wasn't as bad for the rest of the zodiacs. They also moved the ship so it was a less wet ride for them. We never felt it was not safe, but we got pretty wet loading and then got a lot of spray hitting us during our trip back to the ship. Everyone got some spray on the way back, but we had the "luck" of being on that first one back!
