And here is some medical information from Quark:
No inoculations are required to enter the countries visited on this expedition. I would suggest that your clients are up to date on their boosters and are protected against hepatitis A & B. However, they should check with their GP or a travel doctor for any concerns they have in regards to medical information as their doctor will have better knowledge of this and know the clients medical history.
Quark requires each client to complete their medical form via the online forms, once this is reviewed we will advise you on any additional info we require, if any. Many thanks, Paul

The Leader in Polar Adventure
Until JUST NOW.. I had no interest in world cup. Now that I know penguins are involved, I’m totally rooting for Korea. GO KOREA! I wanna see black and white animals kick a black and white ball around. I hope they don’t get confused and think their teammate is a ball.
Btw guys, we still have spots left on our epic ANTARCTICA adventure this fall! Email pinguino for details!

sh4d0w sent this picture of what the milky way looks like, from Antarctica. There’s no penguins in the shot, but you could probably connect some starts up and make one.
We’re looking into bringing ham radio gear on our trip. If you’re interested in trying to make contact with our group, or are going on the trip and interested in radio, email pinguino
As a reminder: final payments for Antarctica are due mid-July, which is coming up really quick.
Actually, here’s a penguin. Captain Hook drew it in MS Paint yesterday.
This adorable Penguin is a tv show in Japan, and appears in a few DS games (Japanese only, boo!). It also graces cans of coffee designed for kids. Anyone wanna send us some?
Have you sent Cheryl your passport yet? Please do, asap. We need them to figure out flights. Also you should have gotten some links from us to a couple applications you need to fill out. Need those so we can get you parkas to stay warm and dry. If you haven’t gotten links yet, let me know. Thanks!
Sorry. It’s policy in Antarctica now. No kicking penguins. Even if they kick you first.
(The background on this picture is pretty cool. some kid drew the original and it ended up at a research station in Antarctica) Here’s a news story and a website about it. Thanks to yoyopro and david moon, who sent this.
I’m starting to email out forms and stuff for Antarctica travellers to fill out. I also need to get a concrete headcount of who’s flying out from LAX, so please let me know if you haven’t already. Thanks!
If you’re in LA, you should come to Tommee’s magic show this sunday in Pasadena. Info here.
