Shackleton in the News
Written by Stu Davidson @ Stuck in Customs
Daily Photo – Shackleton in the News I saw on the news earlier that there is a mission heading out to try and locate the shipwreck of Endurance near Antarctica. I can’t wait to see if they are successful and what sort of condition they find it in. In theory it will be pretty good […]

Antarctica from Above
Written by Stu Davidson @ Stuck in Customs
Daily Photo – Antarctica from Above One of the things I enjoyed the most (and there were lots) when in Antarctica was being able to view it from above as we flew about in the various planes and helicopters. It’s hard to know before going how varied it might be. Would it mostly be flat, […]

These do look a bit like steppingstones, I think. Probably wouldn’t be wise to use them as such though…

Written by Stu Davidson @ Stuck in Customs
Daily Photo – Ancient. Antarctica. I lived in Antarctica for about a month, and it was one of the best experiences of my life. I stayed at the New Zealand base (called Scott Base) along with about 100 other people. They were mostly scientists doing all kinds of strange research like looking at penguin poop […]

Written by Seth Miller @ Wandering Aramean
A new variant of concern doesn’t have us too concerned. At least not yet. Plus greenwashing, hub bluffs, and pilot retirements.

Slow Time in Antarctica
Written by Stu Davidson @ Stuck in Customs
Daily Photo – Slow Time in Antarctica Here’s a shot I got out of the helicopter on the way from one camp to another. The whole place is so raw and wild… since I had a double major in Geophysics (which I quit because of an argument with the professor), I’ve always been interested in […]
Projectile Penguin Poop
Written by Stu Davidson @ Stuck in Customs
Daily Photo – Projectile Penguin Poop I mentioned penguins for snacks in a recent post… One thing many people don’t know about penguins is they can shoot poop out like projectiles, so this is one reason that you don’t want to chase penguins. But none of them seemed too afraid of humans, Projectile Penguin Poop […]
What’s for Breakfast? Seal Blubber!
Written by Stu Davidson @ Stuck in Customs
Daily Photo – What’s for Breakfast? Seal Blubber! Actually down here in Antarctica, that is pretty much the only thing on the menu, at least in the olden days. This is one of the huts down there, just as it was originally used. They would just pile up the blubber by the front door to […]

Written by Seth Miller @ Wandering Aramean
A mistake fare brought back some excitement we haven’t felt in a long time, even if it eventually cancelled. Plus Iceland to Antarctica and much more!
