I'm in Victoria Land!!! This is my last stop on my trip so I'm going to savor it. After I set up camp I went exploring and found a giant ice cave!!! After I found the first ice cave I found a lot more of them. I went back to my camp after a while and starred at the stars before I went to bed. I dreamt about going home that night.
