Arrived!

We have officially arrived to Antarctica! Shortly after making it past the
outer islands, the sun set and we had a another beautiful start to the
evening. It seems as though we've had excellent luck so far. Aside from
~10 degree rolls during the Drake, everything has gone smoothly.

We set up the instruments on the rosette today: LISST, LOPC, data logger,
and mini-CTD all attached and tested. We should have a trial run tomorrow
morning before the SONAR calibrations. Should be a good day tomorrow!
