Top on my “List” is Antarctica

 

Travel to AntarcticaIt’s tough having perma-wanderlust. Regardless of whether I’m freshly back from some amazing adventure or completely desperate for anything remotely resembling a three day weekend, I can’t stop looking ahead to where I’m going next. To help me narrow down a seemingly infinite world of possibilities, I have created my own “Bucket List” – places I must see or things I want to experience in my lifetime.

One place that is top on my list is Antarctica. The “white continent” remains a mystery to most and an object of curiosity for those of us who revel in the awe-inspiring beauty and overwhelming power of nature. Encountered by Shackleton, Amundson and Scott less than a century ago, this frozen wilderness still looms in all of its purity. Overwhelming wildlife, blue-tinted icebergs, and white snowfields stretching to eternity . . . there is no journey like it on the planet.

Beginning in 2012, Boundless Journeys will offer a 12-day trip to Antarctica on the Polar expedition ship the Sea Spirit. With a team of naturalists who are passionate about their subject, and zodiac outings bringing us close to an extraordinary array of wildlife, this spell-binding atmosphere provides an experience of a lifetime.

Before I had a child, I heard other parents say how fast the time passes. This made sense in my head, but I still cannot grasp just how much faster time passes since I became a parent. Of all the things on my “Bucket List,” there are still so many I have not done. I realize that I may never get to fulfill all of my travel fantasies, however, my goal for 2102 is to cross Antarctica off my list. How about you?
