20/12/00 - Bechervaise Island
Still on Bechervaise, and the wind hasn't let up one little bit. I've been getting lots of inside jobs done. We were planning to go into station today, but the wind is too strong. It should start easing up on the weekend, and be fine for Monday (Christmas). If there is any decent ice left, we will walk into station for Christmas dinner.
