Travel Midi 1 - Antarctica

◆ · By JeffsPuzzles · Published 2023-01-04T13:18:13.216Z

Constructor's Note
This is the first in a series of midi crosswords focusing on a place I've been, and more specifically, a photo or photos I've taken there. At the same time as I post these, I will post a write-up about the place and photo(s) on my travel blog, PuffinlessTravel.com. Here's a link to today's write-up: https://puffinlesstravel.wordpress.com/2023/01/04/pix-and-grids-1-antarctica/

          Fun and informative! I don't think I could ever go to Antarctica, as I hate both the cold and the ocean. But I think it must be incredible to see, all the same. Looking forward to reading your write-up!

                I applied for a job at South Pole Station in 1989. Became the backup candidate. Was never called on. Always wonder what if. Maintain my curiosity about the whole continent since then. Great pics.
