| At the Edmonton Airport. |
A tragic event almost occurred, I almost missed the flight to Edmonton. I barely made it to the plane, 15 minutes before the crew closed the shuttle door for passengers. I had awoken that day with a plan, but the plan failed. Due to some issues regarding the itinerary, I had to wait a staggering amount of time to speak with customer service about the flight. After that issue was squared away, I made it out of security at around 8:15 AM. With a departure time of 8:32 AM, the crew had to shut passenger boarding a good time before, so not even bothering to tie my shoes after getting through the security gate, I made haste toward Gate 70, and lo and behold, the boarding crew knew my name before I could speak it to them. I guess they were informed of my arrival somehow. I entered the plane and quickly made my way to my seat, and with much satisfaction, let out a breath of relief. I could now enjoy some good DC Comics and Physics Review and some much needed shuteye.
The flight took approximately 4 hours, I've arrived with Sean Dougherty (Mechatronics Specialist) at Edmonton and am now situated in the hotel for the day and night. Tomorrow morning, Sean and I head off to Yellowknife in the Northwest Territories up further North to progress in the goal of getting to Resolute Bay.
P.S.
Bring mosquito repellent when coming here during the summer!
Cheers!
