Midnight SunUploaded by: Samantha_Dassler_Barlow On: 1148670175 File Size: 24353 Comments: 0 / Views: 493 Description: Can you see why they call this the land of the midnight sun? It is 24:55 and the sun is just now setting. The scientists on the midnight to noon shift told me the next morning that it didn’t really get dark at all last night. It stayed twilight all night long until the sun rose again around 0600. |
Sailing into the SunsetUploaded by: Samantha_Dassler_Barlow On: 1148670130 File Size: 29307 Comments: 0 / Views: 449 Description: I captured this beautiful view of the sunset in front of the bow before we turned to head to another station. This picture was taken at 24:30, May 23, 2006. So Monday’s sunset didn’t technically happen until Tuesday morning. |
Captured!Uploaded by: Samantha_Dassler_Barlow On: 1148670083 File Size: 35465 Comments: 0 / Views: 502 Description: This big orange and white boat is probably pretty scary to many animals in the ocean. Most of the walruses we saw slid into the water as we came near them. This brave male walrus stayed on his piece of ice long enough for me to get a zoomed in picture. | |||
Walrus HerdUploaded by: Samantha_Dassler_Barlow On: 1148670039 File Size: 31033 Comments: 0 / Views: 478 Description: Walrus like to pile on top of each other. It seemed like every time I thought I saw one walrus, it really turned out to be two or more. We saw walrus herds like this for several hours in this broken pack ice today. |
Healy Style S’moresUploaded by: Samantha_Dassler_Barlow On: 1148669055 File Size: 31367 Comments: 0 / Views: 477 Description: 5/18/06 – After singing a walrus song for us, the captain sat down to a steaming mug and a plate of s’mores. The improvised s’mores were made with graham crackers, marshmallow fluff, and chocolate syrup. | ||||

Sam on DeckUploaded by: Samantha_Dassler_Barlow On: 1148664417 File Size: 29686 Comments: 0 / Views: 502 Description: 5/18/06 – Patty took my picture on the fantail, or stern, of the ship. This is where much of the data collection happens. I am dressed to the nines in my hard hat, windproof hat, mustang suit, various layers of warm clothing, and my steel-toed boots. Can you think of reasons why I might need to wear all of this protective clothing? | |||||
