Port Lockroy
Souvineer shop at the bottom of the world. This seemed to be sort of a crossroads. There was a bulliten board with letters (in unstamped envelopes) attached to it. Letters seemed to be people at one Antarctic base writing to residents of another base. Had the impression they all pass through here at one time or anohter.
You could also buy British Antarctica stamps and mail postcards from here. I think the mail went by ship to the UK (with pickup from this post office perhaps once every 2-3 weeks or so) and then entered regular internaton mail from the UK.
