Cocoa and crow’s nest at 5 a.m. Ice everywhere. Writing up diary. Under steam we are making very fair way through this ice. It is extraordinary that we have not seen a single Ross Seal and have only sighted two … Continue reading

4.30 cocoa and crow’s nest. Ice everywhere all round, but thin floes which we can steam through, and as open leads are appearing in the right direction it was decided to get up steam again and try and force a … Continue reading

4.30 a.m. cocoa and crow’s nest. Today we got under sail and moved a little through some sludgy wet ice floes. It was a wet, snowy, blowy day. Easterly wind 5 to 6. We saw a lot of Crabeaters, but … Continue reading

6.20 a.m. cocoa and crow’s nest. After breakfast salted my seal skins and finished flensing them, in fact had a blubbery day, and smelt in proportion. Birds as before very much—we are still in the pack with no apparent prospect … Continue reading

Cocoa and crow’s nest at 5.30. Writing and reading and finishing off the seal flensing and skeleton making and skinning penguins, when Ponting got a cinematograph show of us both skinning, which he says is most successful. This is Christmas … Continue reading
