20-March - Return to Wellington.
Weather calm and clear sky, - we are all busy scrubbing down the ship to get it looking good for arrival. A nice wallowing swell in the Cook Strait and up ahead are the green hills of the Wellington heads again. It’s always great to see your homeport again.
The end is nigh for what has been an epic voyage. It has opened my eyes to a corner of the world that I had never dreamed of getting to or really shown much interest in but for which I feel as if I have a special connection with now. This last wilderness frontier is truly a magnificent place. After experiencing the magnificence of this last wilderness on earth first hand, learning about and realizing the delicate balance of life that exists there, I have fears for the future of this land. There are serious threats that overshadows this magnificent wonderland and the iceberg sculpture garden, global warming, mans greed for natural resources as well as threats to ecosystems such as overfishing of Toothfish. All efforts be made to ensure sustainability and to ensure that the Ross Dependency will very soon not be another national park of New Zealand but actually part of the Antarctica International nature Park.
