Leaving Palmer Station

We are getting ready to leave Palmer Station in about an hour and a half. I'm excited to get back to the States, but not the boat ride. Hopefully it won't be as rough as the southbound trip. Here's a picture that someone sent me from that trip:

This is how we had to walk down the halls on the vessel for about 24 hours.

I think that it is great that you got to send pictures of penguins. Thanks for that. I will be following your blog home.

Shawn,
Thanks for everything! I did get my work done. I even have footage of penguins dancing for me that ill post on youtube when i get back to the states

Carrie,
Thanks for the comment! The rocking back and forth was crazy through the Drake passage. It was like this on the way back for about two days. Thankfully I wasnt sick, but I was really, really bored because you cant do anything when the ship is rocking that much.
