Stopping to Smell the Roses
Today was a pretty relaxing day, culminating in a stroll through the botanic gardens. I figured I'd better get a whiff of the roses since I'm about to enter the land without smells. Well, I should say the land without pleasant smells. Of course there are plenty of disgusting, unshowered human smells.
We're supposed to report at oh-six-hundred tomorrow morning for the flight down there. If all goes well, I'll be writing next from Antarctica...

Great Picture!!! It was nice getting your phone call last nite. Stay Safe and warm.
First of all, it is "0600" vice "oh-six-hundred." Second, comment moderation was enabled on your blog, really? Guess the Ashcroft years got to you more than I had previously suspected. Finally, I love the pose in the picture--especially the camera bag fanny pack (or is it "bum bag" in the nether regions of the world?). Anyhow, all the best during your transit to Antarctica--let me know if they don't have the chocolate-swirl ice cream machine at the South Pole and I will try to throw some weight around to get that fixed ASAP! Best, Will
Marthe and I just want to thank you again for the South Pole water. And we wanted to remind you that this time we'd really like a penguin please.
Hope your trip was a safe one! I'd like to add my name to that penguin list as well! :) It's so cold here today it kinda feel like the Artic!
