Flying adjacent the the ocean as it slowly starts to freeze with winter approaching. Our destination was 120km from our base. You can see the ship moored in the harbour of the Indian Base base getting ready to sail for home that night.
The choppers (our taxi service) landing at the Indian Base.
It was a hyde of activity as the last of the cargo heading home was being loaded on the ship.
The new base a bit like the spaceship Enterprise from Star Trek.
The ship.
More ship and background. The harbour is very deep which works out well as the ships can park up close unlike Davies which have to stay out some 2km.
The chopper landing on the ship.
A view from the deck on top of the new building.
A different angle at the same location.

Back at base with the sun setting. Was a great day checked out the all the plant rooms that make the building function including power generation, waste water, heating and fresh water. Our host's where very accommodating and treated us with some local snacks and drinks.
