Catching up

Soooo, I'm a few days behind and need to catch you all up. Last post, I had just boomeranged on the flight on Friday. Saturday nothing super interesting happened, I went to work after the flight was delayed right off the bat, everyone was pretty sure that we were not going that day. And so we didn't. They never fly on Sundays, which was nice because it was my day off, so I just got to relax and hang around Mac town for another day. In the morning I went to church at the little chapel the have at the station, I went last week also, it was nice. Quite a bit more fomal than I am use to, but it was good to connect with some of the people there. The service was pretty small, only about 20-25 people there, so it was easier to meet some of the polies that would be going down. There was a couple that I met last week who are very nice and I will look forward to getting to know them better in the future. This week, I was surprised to see my boss come to the service, I didn't know that he was a Christian so it was nice to see him there. Also the man who is our station manager has been at both services and I have gotten to talk to him just a bit. He is a very nice man and I'm sure he will do a great job running the station.
In the afternoon, after partaking in the amazing brunch that the do on Sundays, I got to go take a tour of Captain Scott's hut which is at McMurdo. Sometimes when the polies get delayed they will arrange for some special tours and trips that only we are allowed to go on. It was amazing to see the conditions that those men lived in, everything was so well preserved, it was like one day they went out and never came back. All of their stuff was still there, right were they left it. Amazingly preserved by the cold. It was incredible to see, and made us realize that we would never have anything to complain about concerning our living conditions.
