I'm in the South Pacific somewhere, close to Antarctica, on a tiny island filled with sapphire blue hot-springs .... it looks a bit like the mineral flows in Yellowstone, each terrace deep and filled, small patches of emerald green grass between them...I'm in the hot-springs before shipping back, unwinding, it's beautiful and there's a bigger island somewhere behind me, South Georgia Island or Ascension Island, a name I recall from a whaling book I recently read....

There's a body in the ship, for some reason it's stuffed in a trunk and we have to return it, one of our shipmates who didn't survive the voyage, and in the cabin of the ship, looking in the trunk where he's packed I'm discussing with someone (?? who?) what we should do with the body, we're supposed to return it, but we're discussing burning it, or a burial at sea....we have to pull him out of the trunk first though, and as he's been in there a while it might be messy....
