Two days at sea...


...must not be boring at all. All kinds of seabirds circling around the FRAM, seeming to seek the passengers lenses. Questions? Not a problem, the lecturers will answer them right away. In the mornings and in the afternoon we have lectures on Penguins, plate tectonics, the legendary Ernest Shackleton, ice, antarctic fishes, marine ecology - a floating university with a view. Or you go to the gym for a most unusual workout that makes the lunch buffet even more worthwhile. It is everything but dull.
