I have made it to the South Pole of the World!!! We landed in a LC-130 (ski equipped) jet around lunchtime today. I've been busy ever since! (Good thing- windchill is -51.... dare I say I've been cold for a good portion of the day?!?!?)
It's great to finally unpack my things in my tent- it's so stylish! The previous owner left me many goodies.. and my space is divided by plywood, with a concocked door! Many tents just have sheets! So, by Polie standards I'm living well! In fact, I'm sitting in my bed, using wifi to blog!! :)
As I mentioned before, the satellites come and go- in fact, I will lose them in just a few minutes! I'll post pictures when I get a little more settled! For now, I need some dinner and rest! I start my new job tomorrow.
Cheers!!!!
YEAH! Glad you made it safely!
