Location: Lake Hoare, Antarctcia
Weather: 19F, Partly Cloudy

I returned from McMurdo Station today and had a really incredible flight back out to the Dry Valleys. I had a front seat in the helicopter, with clear(ish) skies, and a pilot that gave one heck of a tour. My pilot pointed out most of the major landmarks, as well as, some good views of the icebergs that dot McMurdo Sound. I saw the end of the ice sheet, the only water I have seen since I was in Chirstchurch, NZ, and a few seals lounging out on the ice.
