This week has been one frantic rush to get everything done at work.....but miraculously I managed it and have 3 days 'off' to do shopping and packing. There is a lot to think about - making sure I can work all my electrical stuff, and that I know which cable goes with which. I also need Euros and Chilean Pesos for the journey, so delved into our stash and found both. Last time I was in Chile was in 2006 on the way back from Antarctica with the Germans! I have also been wrapping a few Christmas presents, and working my way through the sprouts in our veg box. I'm not at all sad to be leaving sprouts behind for the winter, but fruit I will miss a lot.
Apart from that, I am looking forward to a 'Christmas' meal at the weekend, and Phoebe's Christmas play on Monday (she is an angel, and Robert has made her some enormous wings!). Then I will probably be only too glad to leave, as the last few days can get a bit tense. In theory I should be in Antarctica on 10th December....weather permitting. Let's see!
