Yesterday we got back to work after a restful break in Valdez. The weather was still a little stormy but we were ready for it.
Today has been relatively balmy, not much wind or rain. We even saw some orcas on our transect! Doing biological sampling in this calmer sea was quick and rather enjoyable, no falling or spilling sample bottles or bouncing lead weights.
We also did our last plankton net, bringing up, among other cool critters, a beautiful comb jelly.
Currently we are waiting as a giant cruise ship crosses our transect. We will continue along the EW line for the rest of today.
