tomorrow, tomorrow...

So, tomorrow. Greenland.

I managed to get my hands on a little map so that you (and I, thankfully) can see where we'll be spending the next 10 days or so. So here you have it:

We did some research early on, and Nuuk is 2 hours ahead of us... and as you can tell, we will be absolutely nowhere near it.

The Thule Air Base website says that it's only an hour ahead, so hopefully that won't mess with us too much. On the other hand, we'll be in 24 hours of sunlight because of the summer solstice...

Anyways, we got our final itinerary fed ex'd to us this morning, complete with 'mission number' and so on (the guy who brought it to our door was all like "I think it's from the Pentagon..." so good.) And basically it said that we will for sure have shows on the 4th and 5th of July (Fri and Sat), and possibly a show on Tuesday the 8th. We also got an email from one of the men on the base, telling us that when we don't have shows they'll be showing us around, including a 'Thule Tripping' day on Monday.

Yes.

Tomorrow will be a full day of traveling, and we leave Syracuse at 11:30 to go to Philly, where we will then catch a plane to Baltimore that arrives at 2pm. Then we switch from commercial to military flights, and our plane for Greenland departs at 2am. So... we'll have some time to hang. I'm bringing some books to read. We'll be video-blogging. Kaleena got her computer and camera all hooked up, so in addition to this you'll be able to see a little bit of what's going on from the top of the world. We tried it out today:





For all of our upcoming vids, check out www.youtube.com/thescarletending.

We'll be updating that, and I'll be updating this, as much as possible.

See you in Greenland!
