Comments
The wind whistles down the sides of the ship as the tempest rages across the seas. The Happy Dragon defiant in the face of the infamous Casey winds. The station just visible through the blowing snow and sea spray. It's one of those days that is best spent tucked up with a good book, a cup of tea and wondering how it is that penguins don't blow away.
REGARDS: Anthea and Misty.
