Looks like a resort, right? This is the Clipper House. Once upon a time, Midway was a tourist destination and this was the islands fine French Restaurant. Now, this is our dining hall.
Our dining staff out here is amazing. Because the majority of workers on the island are Thai they prepare both Thai and American dishes at every meal. But because it was Thanksgiving the food was primarily American.

All the American's gathered around the table. I'm not sure why none of the Thai's joined us. They mostly ate up at the bar or outside on the deck.
Please note our classy center pieces. Now this is typical for remote field stations.
My first plate of food... I had two and dessert.

Two of the cooks with the earth shatteringly good six-layered "Carrots Cake". Possibly the best cake I have ever had.
