Day 18

We are now transiting around the N side of Gardner Pinnacles to map, and from tomorrow we will start our way back.
Today we had our last dive. Dave and Jenny collected samples at between 1900 and 1600 meters of water depth. They investigated a massive huge barrier-reef that surrounded the
Pinnacles many millions of years ago. The samples confirmed this hypothesis.
It was a cool day on board, not too long, and we had the best sunset so far, with a silky calm see reflecting the clouds and the sky colours on the ocean.
Now I go to bed, tomorrow I can sleep late, as there are no dives, just some reading and helping prepare the rock samples gathered today.
