A call to Brendan regarding radiocarbon dates and a visit to Kara at Colgate have left me missing the southern hemisphere, particularly Chile and Antarctica. Some diagnostic photos to reminisce in a healthy way: sea pigs from a Blake Trawl taken for the bio team. Helping with the trawls became one of my favorite things to do during the night shift. Organizing strange southern sea critters by type is my ultimate calling. Some Easter fun with our good friend, Ned the Egg. Liz dreamed up his presence, and we shot photos of him all over the ship. I volunteered to play the reprimanding authority figure in "Ned getting in Trouble." Kara photographs me as I photograph her, I can hear our harmonious giggles right now! A view of Drygalski on a sunny afternoon; I remember going up to the bridge straight after shift and lying out in the sun, something I was not expecting to do in Antarctica! Brendan diligently does something to this kasten core whilst modeling our favorite piece of clothing: Insulated Carhart Overalls. A large ikaite crystal found in a kasten core towards the end of the cruise, inevitable from a smelly core (sulfurous), probably JKC-36, the core I happen to be working with this summer. A final southern hemisphere breakfast at the Hotel Jose Noguiera. I cannot take credit for the plate-full or the smoothie spill; that's all Brendan's.
