Travel Details!

Woo hoo! All flights have been finalized and my travel dates are set!

The SCA Internship begins with a short trip to Mt. Rainier to get some training, including a WFA Certification and some National Park Service training. I'll get to learn about risk management techniques and loads of other fun stuff. The Wilderness First Aid training should be interesting. With an existing WEMT cert, I'll be glad to get the nice refresher. I'll leave for Seattle on June 14, travel to Mt. Rainier and stay in a lovely platform tent for the week. Hopefully I'll have enough free time to do plenty of exploring around the park. I'll fly home from Seattle on June 20th, getting into Alexandria sometime around midnight.

To keep the adrenaline rush flowing after a long day of flying home from the westernmost reaches of the lower 48, I'll have a 7 hour stint at home before I head off for the islands. The turn-around time will be short and likely only just long enough to wash my laundry, re-pack my bags, and be off to the airport. I am most excited to be on the plane headed for St. Thomas. From there, I'll take a ferry from Redhook to Cruz Bay. From June 21st through September 10th, St. John's Cruz Bay will be my home.

Now, time to go pack my bags!
