Australia Day - Davis Station Antarctica 2012

Australia Day at Davis Station is one of the great days of the year. It is celebrated like a lot of other places with a game of Beach Footy, Beach Cricket, a swim, and too much food. Ah yes, and a few beers as well. But first a pitch has to be built . . .
Earth works are always required when playing a serious game of beach cricket. No drinking on this pitch . . .

Some minor level could be required . . .


Maybe a bit more minor leveling . . .

Aong with some minor rolling . . .
But before the game, a bit of a quick dip . . .


A very quick dip.That's minus 1.5 C out there boys and girls. Ah, I don't think there's any surf out there though . . .
 
There's always one . . .

Yes, those are icebergs in the background . . .


Patroling the beach for rouge Killer Whales and Sharks . . .?

Did someone say "Killer Whale . . ." Hey, your going the wrong way!


Game on . . . Nice Stroke!

Tough Crowd . . .

The pitch is a bit dry . . .

Local Sreaker . . .

Game Over . . . Lets Eat!
