Hi Mindy -

Now that you are back from Antarctica and have the benefit of experience, is there anything that you wish that you had taken with you that would have made your experience even better?

Hi Cameo,For me, the best thing I took was my good ground coffee as I'm dependent on that for a good start in the morning.  It would have been handy to have a hair dryer once in a while - but I used one I got from "skua" - the leftovers that other people leave behind.  If you don't like hair all over your fuzzy jackets, I would take a lint remover, and maybe a mister if you need some moisture in the air.  It is super dry.  Otherwise the store carries most things you might need, but if you are fussy about brands of items you should take your own in case they don't carry your favorite brand.  I used baby wipes in the field, which are probably already on your list.  I'll add more as I think of more!
Cheers, Mindy
