Thanksgiving on Ice

We celebrated Thanksgiving on Saturday by having a big feast in the galley. That morning my roommate Cori and I kicked things off by watching a movie and knitting in our room, then decided we had better earn our dinner so walked out on the sea ice for a while, and then made our way to the galley, dressed to the nines (thank you, Mom, for providing me with fancy clothes that go with purple Ugg boots! Who would have thought that people get dressed up in Antarctica?), bottles of wine stuffed into the pockets our our Big Red parkas.
What a great meal it was and a superb effort by the kitchen staff! The galley was decorated, people looked fabulous and the food was wonderful.
Afterwards, we all went to the Coffee House to listen to some live music. A very nice Thanksgiving day indeed.
