Much inside less outside work today

Finally the batteries arrive. We waited for an hour...

That's the shuttle "bus"

That's Sven Lidstrom, one of two IceCube Winter-overs.

Today was the first of three days of software tests I want to perform on the detector. It went pretty OK, so i am happy with that! Finished right before dinner but we had to drive out to ICL to unpack the last of these damn heavy batteries from yesterday. Not to bad because I got some fresh air at least! We went there with the shuttle which is 100 times warmer but 1000 times less fun than the ski-doo.
