A quiet morning:: no Pilates so I tried Yoga, not very successfully!. Then just Bio Security with an inspection for outer clothes, boots, etc, on Svalbard and a mandatory briefing on the subject. Then a very civilised lunch in the restaurant. A Zodiac cruise in the afternoon round Bear Island: fantastic rock formation and also guiilemot colonies

.Back in time to join in Team Trivia belatedly. Then a lecture by Marcel on the Arctic Circle, mainly incomprehensible!. Followed by having my hair cut by Din- not quite sure at the time, but soon regretted it! A really good dinner in the restaurant accompanied by a bottle of d'Armailhac, a luxury as the 5th wine tasting had been cancelled due to no space for it with the remaining 6 days of excursions ( But later, after we had spent all our onboard credit, it was reintroduced).
