A Package from the South Pole!

I arrived at my office today to find that Olivia had received a mysterious package at my office at Scott Polar. Closer inspection revealed that it had arrived from the South Pole- Really! A friend from Greenland, Katie Hess, is the radio operator there, and had sent some truly polar presents for the little girl. Among them, a book of official South Pole stamps canceled on _her birthday_ (check it out!) at South Pole! Also, a postcard signed by Borge Ousland, Polar Adventurer, who was no doubt there on his way to yet another heroic feat.


And for Olivia's first adventure into cold climes, a lovely warm hat- thanks Katie! We have to assume that such cold places are rather far from her thoughts right now though, as she sleeps (really zonked out) peacefully in the sling on my chest.
