Hey Everyone,
Just a quick post to let you know that I am back in Longyearbyen already. I will be flying back to Tromso today.
The ship had a major mechanical breakdown requiring it to go back to Tromso for repairs. In addition the helicopter pilot had appendicitis or something and had to be flown off the ship.
It was a real shame as we were in the ice and would have had a mooring station soonish. I did not even get to step on the ice, but oh well.
The seas were a bit rough on the return to Longyearbyen with winds at 35knots gusting to 50knots (or so I heard from the helicopter mechanic).
Things are a bit up in the air for me now as I do not get my apartment until September 1, but I will find something.
There is also still the change that the cruise gets some more time to do the essential work only, but we will see.
