Re-supply is finished, and it's time to leave. We're flying to the ship by helicopter, and have to wear flight suits. After we're all dressed, we wait...
Then fly, three at a time to the Aurora Australis.
And leave Macquarie Island behind.
Hobart, Tasmania is a three-day voyage away.
The Aurora is a 95 m ice-breaker, and relatively comfortable -
in good weather.
The last day of the voyage, the weather kicked up and the sailing was a bit rough.
But Friday morning, we arrived in Hobart on a beautiful autumn day.
The trip is pretty much over. A few days in Hobart, a few days in Melbourne, and then back to Tucson.
