My Voyage

I joined the Semester at Sea Fall 2012 group on facebook and it's awesome. I found out that my voyage is going to be the first route that Semester at Sea has taken so here's our itinerary:
Halifax Nova Scotia - August 23rd- Embark
Galway Ireland - August 31st
Dublin Ireland - September 2nd - September 3rd
London England- September 5th - September 8th
Antwerp Belgium - September 10th - September 15st

Cadiz Spain - September 23rd - September 26th
Casablanca Morocco - September 28th- October 1st
Tema Ghana - October 8th - October 11th
Cape Town South Africa - October 18th - October 22nd
Buenos Aires Argentina - November 2nd - November 5th (we'll be at sea for Halloween)
Montevideo Uruguay - November 6th- November 8th
Rio de Janerio Brazil - November 11th- November 13th (Previously Rio was only available through an excursion)
Manaus Brazil - November 22nd - November 24th (Thanksgiving and Black Friday here)
Roseau Dominica- December 1st- December 2nd (Happy Birthday Mom!)
Ft. Lauderdale Florida- December 7th- Debark

I have begun the process of getting my classes approved for transfer. I have to do this because Gonzaga doesn't sponsor or work with Semester at Sea at all so I have to get all my classes approved and make sure my financial aid will transfer. So far I have 2 classes approved and I have hopefully 8 more to get approved. I'm getting more than what I will actually be taking approved because I might not get to take my first choice classes.
At this point I am just getting all the paperwork done that I need to do at my school. This summer I will be signing up for classes and "excursions" known to SAS as international field programs. I will also be getting all my travel documents in order. You will absolutely hear about that process as well.

I am getting more and more excited every day. I found a new blog to read :

I should probably start looking into flights to Nova Scotia from Anchorage....
