didn't forget anyone) all came out to greet the plane and me. They
are all people I work with back in Madison and it was so nice to see
familiar faces after days of traveling. I only managed to get photos
of Gary and Mark then so I will just talk about them. I *had* to take
a photo of Gary in his mask!
Both are research scientists like me, but they have been down to the
Pole many times. Gary has wintered over at pole some ten years ago.
Mark is known for being at the right place at the right time, like
flying into Hawaii to go diving and seeing a mother whale and baby
whale dancing in the water (his dive leader who dives nearly every day
there has never seen anything like it) or being swarmed by penguins at
McMurdo.
