Gerhard checks the letter in the bottle ...
... before throwing it into the sea.
I think regardless of our separate fields we will all now have an interest in this field and its future developments.
Thank you dear reader for following this blog of events.

Everybody is happy about the successfully collected sediment core.
By the way, we also saw dolphins today!! Or small whales? We are not sure about that, have look!

It appears that the sea had other ideas and so we got very wet and cold during the grab sampling. Good job no-one here had any illusions this would be a pleasure cruise. Still spirits are high and our interest in the research resulting from these efforts is ever growing. Looking forward to Claudia's debriefing at the end of the cruise and finding out more.

Oh . . . and then there was cake!
