Yesterday ( 22.8.2022 ) we learned during our evening lecture " Tomorrow Information" that we will have a surprise landing on St Lawrence Island.
Something not advertised in our original itinerary for this voyage. Hurrah !!

Sunset in this region at this time of the year is very late: yesterday it was at 23:01



Another interesting thing has happened this morning at 2:30 am

No, I did not set my alarm to "experience" this. Just a short time travel anyway.

St Lawrence Island is only 58 km away from Russia. In case you want to know more this island click here

Thick fog this morning when I woke up and one could not see the Island. Weather is miserable, no sun so I decided to skip this very last excursion and have a relaxing morning onboard.

Soon after lunch ( I am skipping that as well ) when we are leaving St Lawrence Island to head for our final stop, Nome, I will attend some lectures:
- Technical aspects of MS Roald Amundsen
- Virtual tour behind the scenes and who is what
- Climate Change - Reasons for Hope
- Captain's Farewell

And then: packing ! Luggage has to be put in front of ones cabin door by 22:00 latest
