- Well my advice would be to pursue things on your own and not just do homework or things...

Hello there!
I have lots of "favorite" things to do in Antarctica! Just being here and absorbing my surroundings is one of my favorite things, working with such an amazing group of people is one of my favorite things, and helping with the research is a favorite thing. Perhaps my all-time favorite thing, however, is diving with Weddell Seals in Mcmurdo Sound. That is such an incredible experience; the animals are so graceful and curious. It's simply a spectacular feeling!
Cheers,
Robin
My name is Haley by the way
Do you think your going back soon that would be cool.
Wish you luck!,
Haley Bantz from Massabesic Middle School
Hello Haley,
So sorry for the delay in responding - I was in travel mode and then my computer needed a new keyboard!
I plan on going in two years; I go every other year with Dr. Doran's team! It is cool! I can't wait to get back - I miss it already!
Cheers,
Robin
Do you go to antartica often?

Hello Haley,
I am part of Dr. Doran's dive team and the dive team goes every other year. So - I hope to go again in two years (it's an every other year trip)!
Cheers,
Robin
oh
are yoou still going to talk to other kid even though you are not in Antarctica??
Hello!
Yes! I am always happy to chat with anyone about Antarctica! In fact, I just did a presentation on April 2nd for 200 sixth graders!
So, feel free to contact me! Although I'm home, the adventure continues!
Cheers,
Robin
