Pre-Departure Excitement!
Today's the day! Ever since I was a little kid and decided that penguins were my favorite animal, I've wanted to travel to Antarctica. Well, that dream comes true today! All it took was a little over a month of lab tests, physicals, teeth extractions and whatnot and I was cleared for travel. All that stands between me and the Antarctic is a 24-hour plane trip to Chile, 3 or 4 days of Punta Arenas, 3 days of travel through the Drake Passage. I'm ready. Antarctica, here I come!
