Well, here we are again, packing the suitcases for another adventure, only this time it's turtleneck sweaters and long pants instead of shorts and bathing suits.
So far, Thomas has ignored the process - probably because the suitcases didn't come up from the basement until yesterday, and he slept through that. We'll see how he does when we put the last bits in tomorrow morning.
This time our adventure takes us to the bottom of the world, six months after our closest approach to the top! This expedition cruise with Abercrombie and Kent tours is on Le Boreal, a French ship that was designed specifically to cruise in Antarctic waters. We've already watched an episode of Discovery Channel's 'Mighty Ships' program that was dedicated to Le Boreal's first voyage to Antarctica in 2010, so we have a general idea of what to expect on board, but Mother Nature has a habit of being unpredictable, so we'll have to take each day as it comes weatherwise.
We hope you'll follow along on the blog, but in case we have problems with internet access to update it each day or so, you can take a look at the daily log our tour leaders and photographers from A&K are posting with photos on their site. We've posted a link on the sidebar for easy access.
Now off to get those last-minute things done before we leave. The next update will be from Buenos Aires, Argentina on Thursday.
