Scott Base's Annual Skirt Party

This past Saturday night was the annual Skirt Party at Scott Base. The party dates back to the days when the all-male expedition teams would crossdress and dance the night away for entertainment. It was quite the experience, I must say.

Some men prefer to just put on the skirt with whatever top they would normally wear. Like Todd, for example, who showed up wearing this black skirt with his hiking boots and sport coat, fooling you into thinking he's a man's man. There is a barette in his hair.

Or Avi, who attended with his girlfriend, Santi. We later found out that this dress belonged to the PM sous chef who lent it to someone who put it in skua where Avi found it. A sparkly number, Avi chose to wear sneakers and his normal hat with it, a bold and daring decision.

Then there's Austin, who showed up in this fringy number: a little beachy for this weather, but location-appropriate considering it's summer here.

Can you believe this guy? And I'm proud to say that this was not my best photo of the evening!

What's better than getting your picture taken with Werner Herzog?




























You guessed it! Getting your picture taken with Werner Herzog (and his cameraman) wearing a skirt!! When I asked them for the photo, they told me they would "flank" me for the photo.
