Hmmm..I might like the Terra Nova Expedition a bit LOL. That isn't even all of my books relating to Antarctica, but the stack was already high enough haha. I just can't get enough of Scott's expedition..it has grabbed me and won't let me go lol. I wish I could accurately put into words how deeply the expedition and The Worst Journey in the World has affected me (and to think I just casually saw it on a list of best travel books on List Challenges! It caught my eye because there's a glacier on the cover lol. My love of lists is useful after all :P). I know I keep saying this, but those guys were amazing and they make me happy and inspire me <3

The Lost Photos book also confirmed my Cherry suspicions in this picture LOL:
Captain-Robert-Falcon-Scott-Foundering-in-soft-snow
Yikes, that looks rough. My Cherry senses are now super sharp now ;)

Today's trivia: The BBC banned Bing Crosby's 
"I’ll Be Home for Christmas" during World War II, worried its "sickly 
sentimentality" would lower the 
morale of homesick troops

Just avoid the book that I call "the diatribe" because it twists the truth right and left in a very sanctimonious way. I never say the name of the book (well, it has two) but the author's initials are RH. You could throw the book across the room, then burn it, but I'd avoid it altogether!
