24 March 2008 Ascension Island



24th March 2008, Ascension Island
Nothing to say really as this was our third or fourth tender stop that was abandoned because the sea was too rough. We stayed long enough to throw over the mail bags from St Helena and couldn't even disembark a government official who was to fly home from the airport base.
We did, though, get an hours nature trip by an outer island where we saw thousands of sea birds and a pod of dolphins before heading off to Cape Verde.
