Getting Ready to Leave for Montana
Posted by The 2012 Hands-On Explorer Team is getting ready to leave for Montana! We’re almost done packing, and we have all received our itineraries and passports, so we’re just about ready to go. We’ve been getting to know each other by email, but we’re all excited to finally meet in person. We will all fly from our homes to Great Falls this Friday–that’s only three days away!
Each team member received an expedition backpack, water bottle, journal, Montana guidebook, DVD, and map. We have been practicing with our new Canon cameras, and we’re really excited about the great pictures we’ll be taking with them.
We plan to post blog entries every day with photos illustrating our adventures. Follow the blog to live the adventure with us!

Leaving for Peru in Two Days!
The 2009 Hands-On Explorer Team leaves for Peru in a couple of days. We’ve gotten our vaccinations and itineraries (and passports, too!). We’re busy packing, and getting to know each other by e-mail. Soon we’ll say hello to our fellow explorers in person!
Each member of the team received a cool book about the Inca and a journal. Here’s a picture.
We’re also practicing with our new cameras. On Friday we’ll board our planes, and then it’s off to our incredible adventure in Peru. We’ll be really busy exploring new places, including some spots that may not have Internet access, so we may not be able to post a blog entry every single day. But don’t worry–there WILL be an entry for every day we’re on the trip.
So watch this site, check back often, and live the adventure with us!
