We have all put on weight, with out cook Mike Carpanus giving us three-course meals. Actually, the crew are all quite weary--they are either sleeping or reading books. We ran short of reading matter. It's the most magnificent trip any "dad" could ever wish for. Initials AE/17.59 AE/18.18 Script is copyright Reuters Limited. All rights reserved
