FRENCH SOUTHERN and ANTARCTIC LANDS (T.A.A.F.) - Dumont-Durville Station (Adèlie Land)

A nice cover from French Southern and Antarctic Lands (T.A.A.F.) posted at Dumont-Durville Station (Adelie Land). Since January 12, 1956, a staffed French research base has been located year-round at 66°40′S 140°01′E, the Dumont d'Urville Station, with a winter population around 25, but this goes up to about 78 during the Antarctic summer. This cover was posted in 23.12.2019 and arrived on 11.01.2021. Simply amazing!
