We've just arrived on site at Station B, after a welcome 15hrs off of 
sampling. We did a quick call into Palmer Station to pick up some 
chemicals for someone (and alas I missed getting on the internet to 
post more pictures as I was sleeping..!), we didn't actually pull in, 
a zodiac whizzed over and picked up the loot, and we arrived on 
station around an hour ago. The seas have been bumpy, so although I 
don't go on watch for another 7hrs, I was awake so thought I would 
take in breakfast and check on my coral babies to see how they 
survived the transit.
Station B was sampled by this group last time they were here (2000), 
so less surveying to do and jumping straight into sampling. We'll see 
what Station B yields (by the way, we did another trawl at AA and I 
got another butt load of corals.....woo hoo!).
