The Antarctic treaty between the various countries restricts the growth of plants except those used for food. I did suggest that there are many edible flowers. Maybe in the future this greenhouse will have beautiful flowers. The yellow cucumber flowers were more beautiful that I had ever seen. I am in a spacious room with computers here with large windows that look out on McMurdo Sound.
Mountains are everywhere.
I think all of the mountains are volcanoes. I'll check on that. Mt Erebus is the only active volcano on Anarctica and it is here on Ross Island where McMurdo is. I wouldn't mind seeing a small volcanic eruption as long as everyone was unharmded. How about a little smoke out its top.
