Now the kit is on its way it was time to start thinking about me and what will I need to work and live while in Antartica.

ALE will be taking care of me to get there and while I’m on the ice so I really only need to think about personal kit.

How many layers…. which gloves ( which ended up as all of them) which coat? Etc… ALE provided a good list of items which I would need and this was a great excuse for a shopping trip ( or browse).
