Heading into port...

Hi everyone! As I currently write this we are heading into port in Arica, Chile! Yay, land! It's been 33 days without land and I'm so excited to see a new sight and walk around on solid ground.

We had our last sampling run on the 28th of February and my last data analysis on the 1st of March. It's good to be done!!

Tonight we're going out and celebrating in Arica and saying goodbye to some of the crew and scientists who will depart tomorrow. Many people are having trouble with flights due to the earthquake in Santiago and may not be able to leave for several days after this. Thankfully, my travel group is heading north to Peru so we'll avoid the mess of trying to reroute and get out of Chile.

That's it for now. More when we reach land!
