A Failed Attempt

We were supposed to take the zodiacs to Beechey Island today to visit the graves of some of the men from the failed 1845 John Franklin expedition to find the Northwest Passage.  But the winds are too strong to make the trip.  Plus, it is about 34 degrees and raining.  Not ideal conditions.


So we will have some interesting lectures that were aborted yesterday while we were all outside watching polar bears.
