Shopping in Antarctica

We have now not only visited all seven continents but have made credit card purchases in all seven. I wonder if the bank will process this purchase.
We are in Port Lockroy home to the British Post Office and a Museum and shop.
It is a wonderful place and we enjoyed our visit to the Worlds most Southern shop.Have you read "Where did you go Bernadette?" She visits this shop.
It's very cold this morning. This is the deck just outside our cabin.
Port Lockroy surrounded by penguins
Inside the museum
They had long lonely nights during the long winters
The Union Jack flies over the outpost
The whalebones tell us of the history of Port Lockroy

Gail shares the snow with the penguins

Watch out for the BBC production " Penguin Post" This is the production ship.
Spot the bird. What is it?
This is as far as you can go Mr and Mrs Penguin. The end

Surely it's a chilled chook? :-)

I was a little disappointed in the choices available in the shop, until I realised that photo was the museum...
