Lessons Learned:
That was an amazing first ATV EVA with spacesuit. I went through
different steps and terrains by ATV with Perry's assistance. I got
pretty comfortable driving wearing the spacesuit, and having a mirror
on my left arm helped a lot to see behind. At the same time, GPS was a
lot of help to locate our position and find our way back home ;)
