The crew of the Oden set up a volleyball court in the middle of McMurdo Sound when they were at their last ice station. Everyone joined in. They were still 20 miles from McMurdo Station, in an Antarctic wilderness. At one point the game was suspended for a few minutes as a group of Adélie penguins walked right up to the court as if they were going to play too. Near the icebreaker Oden, on the sea ice of McMurdo Sound, Antarctica.
