Hi, M. Kasemodel.

My Question is: how often do you go outside? What sports you trying? What type of animal you seen so far? Are more animals then what you can see?Laughing

I try to go outside as often as I can. It is the quickest way to the bridge, up on top where the ship's control center is located - where they drive the ship. Also, when taking samples and measurements of the snow and ice or bottom dwelling organisms, one can be outside for several hours. I haven't tried any sports yet, but the ship does have a nice workout room on the bottom deck. I have seen a lot of animals, more than I expected, and it is very easy to miss something because the animals are wary and are camouflaged very well. Also, you could be on the far end of the ship from where the animals were spotted and miss them completely even if someone else saw something.
