Gobble Gobble...Happy Turkey Day

Happy Thanksgiving from Antarctica!  Today was a bit of a long day for us but we had a great time.  We had a fun day celebrating our holiday beginning with a 5km Turkey Trot race around base.  We lucked out with beautiful weather, a warm 28 degrees F, with little wind and beautiful blue skies.  The route started at the Chapel of the Snows and went along the road leading to the New Zealand base and then back again.  We had great views of Mt. Erebus while running and Chris even had a skua fly into him at the start of the race!  We then stayed up to our 1 am to celebrate Thanksgiving with our co-workers that work daytime hours.  We missed everyone back home and hope that you all had a lovely day celebrating with your families and friends! Gobble Gobble!
