Ice Impressions

Around 1730 today I landed in Antarctica. The flight was on a C-17 and was delayed about 3 hours. The C-17 is great. The military is a far better carrier than any airline in America. The food is copious and tasty. The bag lunch weighed at least 5 pounds. The inside of the C-17 is like a stadium, and I estimate the floor at around 24 feet wide. Leg room was no problem.

Stepping off the plane was exciting. I felt like an owl, rotating my head. Dinner was great (lots of fresh veggies, go figure).

I start work tomorrow.
