February 24

Today is the day. My plane is on it's way. I transport at 12:30 and should be in the air by 2:30p.

I not sure exactly how to end the blog. We danced last night, like so many other evenings in Antarctica. It's a fitting end to this continent. I feel alive and human, I think I might love it here.

I think the blog is such a reflection of my experience. It was fascinating and all-good in the beginning, become mundane, and as I grew more into the community I grew away from the blog.

The penguins, the seals, the whales, the pressure ridges, the pastel colors of the sky, the all-so-pretty mountains and the daily fresh baked bread have all been a blessing, but what has made my Antarctica has to be the dancing, the stories of other travels and lives and how I am surrounded by people that feel human and alive.
