Day Sixty Six - Mamya I love you!

We are heading north, and it is getting really cold. Tom decided to crack the whip and used the the cold to make us work even harder, and do you know what? It worked! We travelled by land and sea and covered a staggering 816 miles!

We are on Mamya, one of the Kuril Islands off Russia. It was increadible for those wild life lovers amongs us, great to spot sea otters (which were nearly hunted to extinction by the mid 20th Century), the steller sea lion and the northern fur seal. We've also spotted a variety of whales and dolphins here off the island.
Not surprisingly there isn't much variety of food out here, fish, fish, more fish and puffin for the more adventurous amongst us!
