At Green Gorge I was greeted by Doggo (luckily, wearing clothes), a
movie and many, many snacks. Julia joined us on her way back to station
after two weeks at Hurd Point bothering large birds (albatross) and
Claudia arrived later on her way from station to the southern section of
the island to get those rabbits. Claudia and myself had brought in meat
in various forms and others had left some on their way through, so
dinner that night was a lovely mix of pork chops with various sauces and
pineapple pieces - yum!
I spent the evening playing with
the 50mm lens and looking for more aurora to match the previous night.
Alas, while there was aurora, it was nowhere near as brilliant as the
night night before. An enjoyable night was had by all and the morning
started at around 6am when Doggo got up to go hunting for the day. This
may not seem such a great time when on holiday, but it does make the
afternoon nap more engrossing. Tony and Jaimie turned up at various
times and stayed that night in the hut, while Stumpy made a pit stop on
his way through.

Next morning I was the last out of bed and last out of the hut,
making my way further down island (in wonderfully horrible conditions)
to Waterfall Bay Hut.
