Dear Christina (AKA "Polar Bear Lady"):
As I write this you are in the air, or maybe you have just landed. I can assure you that your expedition will be the most watched of the 2009/2010 season. What a great combination: a September departure, beautiful animals, and a charismatic teacher! We at Sir Francis Drake High School will be eagerly following your every post. Sincerely yours, your fellow Bay-Area teacher, Michael Wing
