Sunshine!

I was on slushie duty yesterday. Usually the slushie helps the chef in the kitchen for the day, but it was Danny's day off so I cooked, with Pete and Mel's help. Never underestimate how much 22 people will eat! 3 huge legs of lamb, several kilos of broad beans, asparagus, beans and carrots, a huge pan of devilled sausages, a vego meal, a gluten free option, and icecream with shaved chocolate and nougat for dessert.

Have also been a regular user of the spa. There's nothing more decadent than sitting in bubbling warm water under the stars with the snow falling... but there's nothing more awful than having to run to your donga at -3.5 degrees.

Am having a bit of a personal space day today. It's a little full on being with other people all the time. I slept in and am planning to hang out with my camera in the (rare) sunshine. Here are some pickies from up at the hamshack this morning:

The ANARE station and isthmus

Fuel farm and dog kennels
