These photos provide a better view of your daily life on AI. Thank you for sharing and taking the time for the pics to upload. The lava roads remind me of Hawaii. How warm is it out on those rough roads? This is a bigger area than I imagined. When you think about the population does it compare to summer at McMurdo? Just wonder how you are managing those crowds! Take care. Andee
