A good meal is easy to find (in Darwin)


After thirty hours of travel, upon arriving to our house in Darwin, Alix and Michael set out with a fresh energy for food preparation. A quick trip to the grocery store and our kitchen was stocked with makings of a delicious meal for the team: salad, mozzarella, tomatoes, delicious Darwin carrots, ground beef, and sausages (curiously marked only as "meat").

Alejandro, team captain ("el Capitan"), supervises what in Australia is known as the "barbie".


Alex (left) and Adam (right), display both their enthusiasm for the delicious salad and their unwillingness to endure Darwin's 30C (86F) heat.

After taking care of their hunger, MIT students Alejandro, Kelly, and Rachel tend to their next-most-important need: Internet. They do so while wearing the team uniform.


Fun Australia facts: the standard soda can is slightly larger than in the US (375 mL vs 355) and our house keys are made of titanium.
