HI MR. B,

I BET IT WOULD BE FUN TO FLY IN A HELO.

USUALLY IN SLEEPING BAGS YOU GET SWEATY AND HOT... DO YOU GET SWEATY IN SLEEPING BAGS IN ANTARCTICA?Smile

IN MR. SCOTT'S HUT DID IT STINK OR HAVE A STENCH?

DO YOU EVER WANT TO TAKE OFF ONE LAYER OF YOUR CLOTHES?

It is wierd that you're at the bottom of the world and I'm at the side!!I hope you have a great rest of the time in Antarctica!Cool

 

Love,

Molly from 3R

It was very fun riding in the helo. The oly night I have had to sleep in a sleeping bag was at Happy Camper School and I did get sweaty.That is a good question about Scott's Hut. Because there was the remains of a penguin, seal and other meat. But it did not smell at all. Since it stays so cold here everything was well preserved.
WHen living and working in cold weather it is best to dress in layers, that way you can add or remove clothes as you get hot and then cold and then hot and then cold and then..... 
 So does that mean you are standing sideays and I am standing upside down?
Thanks for writing.
Mr. B.
