Jason Goodman's Labrador Sea Cruise Letters
The image below shows the cruise track of the R/V Knorr through the
Labrador Sea between Feb 6 and March 13. Each of the numbers correspond to a
letter written to my friends from that part of the cruise. Click on the
numbers to read the letter. Eventually, there will be links in the letters to
my photos as well. Note that letters 1 through 6 and 25 through 30 lie off the
map: the former were written in Halifax and on the way to the Lab Sea; the
latter were written during the return cruise to Woods Hole.
