Buh-Bye from Antarctica

Well it's about that time.  It's time to sign off from Antarctica. It's been one of the most amazing experiences of my life, but I am more than ready to go home. It has gotten to just be "normal" to be here so it didn't seem like this day would ever come. It's finally started to feel real in the last week, and today is finally the day. The plane should be here in 4 hours and I'll be outtie. I can't wait to get home and see everyone I've missed for so long.

This will be my last post from the land of ice and penguins.  I'll still post a couple more updates, maybe from the hotel or airports to post any pics I take. After I get home I'll sign off for good. :)

In the meantime while I wait for my plane I thought I'd let you all read a list I put together of things I haven't done, seen or whatever in the last year...
