Update 1/27 - LeMaire Channel

This morning we investigated Circumcision Bay where the Charcot Expedition wintered a hundred years ago. In the bay we found a Leopard Seal, about nine feet long, on an ice flow. We were able to get to within a few feet and took some nice pictures.
In the afternoon we sailed down the LeMaire Channel. A narrow passage with mountains and glaciers on both sides, incredibly beautiful.
On the down side we have decided to stop serving red wine at lunch. The reason is we only have enough red wine for 3 or 4 bottles per day until the end of the trip. And we are completely out of fresh apples and pears. We will try and survive.
