Question 1: Have you seen any penguins?

No, but I'd LOVE to. Penguins live by the water, and we're in the middle of the continent, 2000 miles from any water (except for the frozen stuff all over the place). The only chance we have to see penguins is when we're flying here and we stop for the night at McMurdo Station. I've seen seals there, but no penguins. If I'm lucky, I might see some when I stop there on the way back!
