Evan,

Thanks for asking about my favorite animal. I'm not sure what the answer is now for me. I think we all identify with smart, playful animals like sea otters and polar bears, but when it comes down to it, everything is part of the whole ecosystem, including people, so it is hard to choose a favorite animal. I hope you don't mind me ducking that question. Speaking of ducks, the spectacled eiders are beautiful diving ducks that have colors on them that make it look like they are wearing slightly greenish glasses.

Now, 15 feet of ice...that is not too much for this ship. If it just a 15 foot chunk of ice, it would take just a few seconds to go through or push aside. That is if the ice is 15 feet long. If the ice is 15 feet thick that is another thing. It would have a very hard time getting through ice that was 15 feet thick, but fortunately for us most of the ice out here right now is just a few feet thick at most, so we are not having any trouble getting through the ice that is out here.
