Well, the bad news is flights down to Antarctica are horribly backed up due to weather and mechanical issues. The good news is that this means a few "free" days in Christchurch New Zealand! I spent the morning going for a nice run around the park, and exploring the city. I went to my favourite coffee shop, strolled through the botanical gardens, and paid a visit to the Canterbury Museum (featuring the Antarctic Exhibits). It's nice to have a few days to take in the city, but I know it will just mean a lot of double-duty running around in McMurdo and WAIS when we finally get there. Oh well, I can't (and won't) complain. I'm enjoying whatever adventures come my way...
