The kitchen at the Port Lockroy museum

Frozen in Time by *karohemd on deviantART

Port Lockroy used to be a military base in WWII and then a research station until the mid-sixties and then renovated in the mid-nineties and reopened as a "living museum". My postcards from Antarctica were posted there. The UK Antarctic Heritage Trust took over running of the place from the British Antarctic Survey sometime last year. That reminds me, I wanted to become a "Friend of Antarctica". *goes to fill out the form*

That was disapppointing

akonken's surprise party wasn't as various sources had accidentally leaked the plan but it was still cool to catch up.
The other disappointment was that my laundry got rained on while I was away but that was to be expected.

Now to cook that steak...
