January 5, 2023 – Day 2: Drake Passage

We’re crossing the Drake Passage today. The sea is fairly mild, but our ship’s stabilizers are broken, so it’s rocking quite a bit. I didn’t get sick, but I pretty much slept all day. I just couldn’t stay awake. It might have been the seasickness medicine that I took.

Tomorrow is another sea day. We’re heading toward Weddle Sea and should be out of the Drake Passage by then, so it should be less rocky.
