6947 06257 About lunch!

Note all the sixes in our position! We are really going south - about 180 to the AC and for the first time since Peel sound, no ice in sight anywhere.

And as for lunch - I think we are rather lucky that we saw our bears in 2008 from good solid Berri and not 1808 from a skin boat. Humans have always been part of the food chain for hungry bears and we might just have become lunch and sustained them for the next 100 miles. There's a grim description of a bear killing an Inuit man in Brower's book.

Nowt to report and an anti scorbutic is due.
