What an amazing day today! Landing in Christchurch, New Zealand this morning was beautiful. This land has been a jumping off place for many an Antarctic explorer throughout history. Along with a statue of James Cook, in the square, you can find the figure of Robert Falcon Scott standing by the Avon River.
Today I met the rest of my research team. Our official event number is G-081. I will be introducing you to these folks over the next week or so. We all met while we were being issued our extreme weather clothing.
I also wanted to take this opportunity to announce the winner of our "Design a Flag” contest. Michelle Bui from Talbert Middle school turned in the winning design. The district office had a very tough time choosing a winner, but were very impressed with the simple yet complete layout of the flag. I think it looks pretty cool! Thank you to all of the students from Masuda, Moiola, and Talbert schools for turning in such neat designs.
