Leavin on a Jet Plane!

It was one year ago that I was on my way to Alaska to spend some time as a NOAA Teacher at Sea.  Even though I didn't get to see very much of the biggest state (only little ol' Kodiak), I totally fell in love with the place, and now I'm going back!  Back in March, a friend/coworker randomly said, "want to go to Alaska this summer?" and of course I said yes. We bought our tickets the next day and started planning the trip- where to go, what to see, what adventures to have?  So difficult to plan, but we did it, all without a travel agent :)  If teaching doesn't work out, we'll be able to find jobs in the travel industry!
So, here I am, making this blog right before I leave for the airport to begin our trip.  I was out last night with a bunch of friends and asked for their input for blog names, and got a lot of hilarious ideas, but most of them had to do with Alaska/cold climate/etc, so I chose this "general" one submitted by Labo :)  so I can use the same blog in the future.  I'll be posting from my phone from here on out, which I'm not particularly looking forward to, but it'll get done- mostly to appease Gary Lapay, since apparently he loved my Teacher at Sea Blog :)  I'm on my way to Alaska!!
