Journal Entry

We are delayed yet another 24 hours.

Things looked promising when we left the CDC yesterday afternoon, but....

Here's the scoop as we know it. McMurdo is beyond capacity, so they have no place to put any of us. They have MANY individuals who need to go to other stations, but weather has not been cooperative. They simply have been unable to get people out.

We'll have to see what happens next. I know I spoke with a lovely woman yesterday who said that we may be leaving in smaller groups of possibly six. As of yesterday there were 28 people on the flight manifest. Soooooo......we shall see. All I know is that I've been delayed 24 hours.

Here's the upside: 1) More time to get some entries, pics and videos posted. I have much to show you all because of the initial delay that freed up a day.  2) More time to see more of Christchurch. (The architecture in this city is jaw dropping!) 3) It's Tuesday night, so I can eat ay Santorini's again

 They have incredible Greek food--clearly the real deal!! 4) I can get my Christmas shopping done today.We'll see about that one! 5) I can have another outstanding breakfast here at the Windsor!

See? Things could be worse

Till later!!
