Almost time to leave

We leave for Miami tomorrow morning. It’s been fun watching the Fram webcam over the last few weeks getting a preview of our adventure.


Yesterday was packing day for us and we did manage to get everything into two large bags and come in under the requirement of 50lbs each… it was close. We are allowed a carry-on each, but for us that will be our camera bags.

As if heading for Antarctica isn’t enough excitement for a while, last Thursday we were invited by our consortium, the Ensemble Travel Group, to be the onboard Hosts for the South America Grand Voyage that leaves January 13th. This is a 70-day cruise all the way around S America that includes the Panama Canal, a week in the Amazon, the Chilean Fjords and cruising Antarctica. We leave January 12 and will return March 24, 2010. We will visit 32 ports in13 countries. Cruise Details for 70-DAY GRAND SOUTH AMERICA EXPLORER . So we have really been in crunch mode getting everything arranged for both trips!
