Fire training pre-departure in Hobart

 

When we were in Tasmania, the whole wintering team undertook various training courses. The fire training though, has all of us training together because in the event of a fire on station, we are all responsible for the firefighting. The training was arduous but lots of fun as well. In this photo I am wearing my Breathing Apparatus and getting ready to go inside a mocked up building - but with very real (and hot) fire! Talk about exciting!
