The White Continent...

So I wrote a while back about doors and how when one closes, often another opens. Well when I decided to close the door on my carnival plans this year (due to costs and other logistical problems), the door that opened led me to a 13-day cruise to Antartica. Haha. I was on standby until about 10 minutes ago, and after receiving final confirmation of my berth, I just had to post about it. So I found the nearest internet cafe and here I am. The retail asking price for the cruise is normally $4000. My ticket? I mere $900. Muhahaha. What a steal! I feel sorry for the people who paid full price. Better yet, a good number of my friends down here are also going. So it is shaping up to be one big party cruise. Now all that's left is to figure out how to smuggle on the alcohol. Tee hee.
