ticketed

I had a twinge of excitement stab me yesterday afternoon when I saw my reservations were made with American Airlines for September 27 and following. First, I will spend a couple of days in Denver for rientation. Then I’ll be off, over the International Dateline (missing September 30 completely and Jen’s birthday), to Christchurch New Zealand for a couple days to get my cold weather gear and hop on a C-17 cargo plane. From there I will land on the Ice Runway just outside of McMurdo Station on Ross Island in Antarctica.
