Last Antarctica-related post! Four posts in a row. I am going out with a flurry of activity.
There are several neat displays in the main hallway of the lab building (Crary) that I worked in. I realize that I focused on the displays with rocks. My geology background seems to have influenced me….

I am off to my flight off the continent! I can't believe it's been two months already. This has truly been the adventure of a lifetime.
Gosh, is this really the last Antarctic post? Thank you for all the sharing. Those are interesting exhibits. And a very exclusive travel attraction. Like Scott’s Cabin. An NPR science reporter recently described his visit to the cabin. See you soon. Pismo!
