This also marked the end of our slumber party in Node 2, as I go back to sleeping in my CASA crew quarters in Columbus In the second picture, you can see the four crew quarters of my NASA Astronauts colleagues in the foreground, with my temporary diagonal 'bed' at the back. Orientation doesn't matter in space – I slept beautifully."
