When I arrived in Hobart for my<br \/>\ninternship at CSIRO I was presented with this great opportunity of<br \/>\ntravelling on a big orange ship. Not only would this be an awsome<br \/>\npersonal experience, I also felt responsible for spreading the BnC<br \/>\nvirus as far south as humanly possible. No BnC-member had travelled<br \/>\nas far south as I was about to. American Dave did a good job<br \/>\ntravelling to the south island of New Zealand, but my journey would<br \/>\ntake me all the way to the continental shelf of Antarctica.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">After 6 days at sea, today was the day. We had passed the 60S mark,<br \/>\nofficially entering the Antarctic circle. But we where going further<br \/>\nstill. The Aurora Australis was bashing through the ice, delivering<br \/>\nus to a place surrounded by ice as far as the eye can see. The wind<br \/>\nwas blowing at 40 knots and with the wind chill factor at maximum<br \/>\nstrenght I was going outside for a picture at -35C. I pulled out the<br \/>\nBnC flag, nearly losing it in the insane wind. I had to use my teeth<br \/>\nto hold it, which wasn&#8217;t the best idea, because it was hurting very<br \/>\nbad. But it&#8217;s results that count, and what a result it is! The BnC<br \/>\nflag at 65S, very close to the Antarctic continent.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">Keeping to the BnC religion, pictures of me drinking and riding a<br \/>\nbike will follow&#8230;<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">Timbo<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bottlesandchains.com\/?attachment_id=403\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-403\" title=\"bnc-at-antarctica.jpg\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As a newly inducted international member of BnC I can spread the BnC religion to places other than Tas.
