Andrea, we have been looking at doing this for years. Nov 2007 will be my 50th birthday. Seems like a good time to go.

Ngaire, we probably have 100 pounds of brochures at home. We have looked at International Wildlife Tours, Natural Habitat, and a few others. I can't tell who is best. I would like to do the mothers and dens extension and dog sledding tour in addition to a helo tour. Maybe we can get the "princesses" to do more research. ;)

One other thing. Ngaire, while you are "trying" to "fit in" all those trips, we poor souls will be trying to fit in the necessary hours slaving away so that we can join you for a trip or two each year. Do you need someone to carry your luggage? :D
