\"Farewell<\/a>
Farewell from the Southern Ocean. Salvin’s Albatross.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Port Pegasus\/Pikihatiti, the southernmost sheltered harbour on the east coast of Stewart Island\/Rakiura, \u00a0offered us respite from the westerly seas if not the wind. The early departure from Campbell Island saw a daytime arrival for\u00a0a Zodiac rendezvous with a helicopter to evacuate a casualty of the southern ocean swells.<\/p>\n

The calm conditions allowed us back to the lecture room for some presentations and expedition recap while the crew managed the evacuation procedures. Another delicious dinner was followed by time on deck as the light faded. Some of the crew took the opportunity to fish for Blue Cod and their mood balanced ours. Their excitement at the approaching completion\u00a0of a job well done lifting our sadness at\u00a0an ending adventure. We envy their imminent departure for Antarctica, they no doubt, envy our extended sojourn on warm land.<\/p>\n

A late retreat from the cold betrays a reluctance to close eyes on the final full\u00a0day of our expedition. The approaching end prompts reflection and we deal with it in our own ways. For some socialising in the bar is the best medicine. For others time alone on deck is the preferred\u00a0way of assimilating\u00a0the emotions. I search\u00a0for images to capture the feelings and find a brief consciousness of cloud floating free above the the heavy darkness of land before fading into the night.<\/p>\n

These experiences are the quickest way of cutting through to what is really important. While there is no way of avoiding the reality of making a living and surviving in the world, experiencing these wild places washes away all the mess that goes with the rest of it, letting us temporarily believe in\u00a0a haven. The memories will sustain us in the everyday.<\/p>\n
