The Plunge

As the Gould pulled away this morning, heading north back to Punta Arenas, 10 Palmerites followed tradition and jumped into the frigid water followed by running quickly to the hot tub. This time, the jump was before sunrise at around 9:00. So far, I've jumped every time the ship has left for PA. Hopefully, I can keep that up all winter.


Jumping off the pier.



Good thing there's a hot tub.

  2. What a badass you are! I don't know how you stand that water. If you ever get back to Oregon, you might be interested in swimming in that thing called the Pacific Ocean. It's like bath water compared to what you are used to.
