This short program illustrates how investigators live on Daphne. It starts with their arrival at Daphne and shows the difficulties of transferring supplies from boat to land and up a cliff because the island that has no beaches. All supplies are quarantined before arrival. Living is in a tent and cooking is done in a small cave with a shade erected to extend protection from sun and rain. There is no fresh water on the island and it has to be brought to the island in large plastic containers, together with food in metal boxes. All water for washing and for dishes has to be obtained by buckets from the sea. At departure everything brought to the island is removed and transferred to a boat.
