Oktoberfest

9/30/2006

Well when you've got a Bavarian on station and this German holiday comes up, he's not going to let you miss it. Over the 'All Call' came this loud yell. We all popped out of our rooms wondering if the fire alarm went off. No, it was only Robert.

Robert's been coming down five times at the South Pole. He has a physics background and works as the science tech for the University of Chicago at MAPO where he flies his Bavarian flag. Some of the other things he does is photography, which he is quite accomplished at, and paragliding.
