Final Docs Rec'd

The final docs for our long-anticipated expedition into the Canadian High Arctic showed up in my inbox today. And just like that, our adventure became very real!

The documents spell out the immediate details we need to be aware of in order to join our expedition group at the Sheraton at YYZ on 1 August. As for the details for our time on the ship ... they will unfold day by day ... in true expedition style.

Also included in today's info packet is the schedule for 2 August, the "real" first day of our voyage ... the day we fly from Toronto, Canada to Kangerlussuaq, Greenland to embark the ship. "Ugh" on the early meet-up time of 5:30a that morning! But hey, we're going on an expedition ... early morning calls are part of that experience. Good thing we're early birds as a general rule 😊.

As well, we now have a list of the expedition team members who will be on the ship with us. Most of the names are unfamiliar, but there are several with whom we’ve gone “expeditioning” before. We are looking forward to seeing them all again … and making new friends, too.Weiterlesen
