Day 4
Misty Fjord
First activity of the day was a Whale and sea creature presentation with guessing games
From the bow we headed to the stern to learn about cloud identification.
After all the brain work we needed to relax in the Jacuzzi at a soothing 40 degrees.
After lunch the cruise into Misty Fjord
New Edistone Rock
Here we see the ship with her anchor chain pointing straight down. Technically we are at anchor with two shackles of chain out (75 m) in 50 m of water. Actually the shop is holding itself in a defined spot by dynamic positioning where the engines, azipods and thrusters work in unison. Having the anchor down means that the Pilot can leave the bridge.
16 Zodiacs were launched, 15 operational and one for rescue, and passengers were loaded in groups of 10 for an hours cruising around the Fjord.
The ship provided us with the top coat jacket, life jacket and muck boots (gum boots).
We provided base and mid layer thermal's, hats and gloves.
