On Friday afternoon, I said goodbye to the manatees off the coast of Belize and the 90 air temperatures and 85 degree water temperatures and now am scrambling to make last minute prepartations to go to Svalbard Island.

manatees off the Belize coast

I spent all day Saturday(July 9th) preparing. I was testing out the satellite phone, packing and repacking my backpack, doing some last minute reading and now am ready to go. It was overwhelming at first, fitting everything I needed for 6 weeks into a backpack and carry on, but I got it done and am ready to go.

Today and early tomorrow we will be packing equipment up at Mt. Holyoke College and tomorrow afternoon we leave for Svalbard. More later.

Bob,

Wow, Belize sounds nice. You sure you want to go to the Arctic?

I'm trying to get packed as well. Good luck and have a great trip.
