A boondoggle is an opportunity to travel somewhere outside the normal bounds of McMurdo. When it gets nicer, the station offers a boondoggle called Room with a View: you drive a snowmobile out towards Erebus and then stop. Then look at stuff. Then drive back. Room with a View.
Also you get some shots of a penguin. It hung around Hut Point for a number of days, either doing not a whole lot or running along the sea ice making noise. Penguin.
