Straight to <em>Icebreaker Oden <\/em>in Tromso harbor, via a small boat riding with a Swiss filming crew. My bag, however, did not make the full journey with me. At some point along the way it got lost in airline purgatory.\u00a0 Finally after more than a day of many phone calls, the bag was located and put back into the flow. It is due to arrive in Tromso today, 3 days later than initially expected. Unfortunately we are already cruising into the Arctic Ocean.<\/p>\n<p>So, we embark on a 6+ week cruise through the Arctic and I am forced into taking the ultra-minimalist approach. Left behind are all of my clothes except for those I wore on the airplane, toiletries, supplements, binoculars, camera equipment, hats, gloves, \u2026.and all of the little things. I\u2019m particularly bummed about a few of these: 1) IR camera: I planned to take some interesting IR photos of sea ice and ocean scenes; alas those images will have to remain in my imagination. 2) Binoculars: We anticipate wildlife along our cruise\u2026. I may not be getting up close and personal. 3) Nicer clothes:\u00a0 Sunday dinner on Oden is a time for sprucing up a bit\u2026. I\u2019ll be arriving in a T-shirt!\u00a0 Fortunately, I was able to get ashore for a brief shopping spree yesterday morning \u2013 Norwegian Arctic style (i.e., very expensive). But I did pick up two pairs of work pants, 3 T-shirts, socks, underwear, and toiletries. Wonder what the chances are for reimbursement from the airlines?<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_37\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/ciresblogs.colorado.edu\/icebreaker\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/40\/2014\/07\/Oden.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-37\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-37\" src=\"http:\/\/ciresblogs.colorado.edu\/icebreaker\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/40\/2014\/07\/Oden-300x221.jpg\" alt=\"Oden in Tromso harbor\" width=\"300\" height=\"221\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ciresblogs.colorado.edu\/icebreaker\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/40\/2014\/07\/Oden-300x221.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ciresblogs.colorado.edu\/icebreaker\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/40\/2014\/07\/Oden.jpg 658w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-37\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span style=\"color: #000000\"><em>Oden<\/em> in Tromso harbor<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>July 6, by Matt Shupe,\u00a0[73N, 27E]: Arrived in Tromso, Norway, a day delayed because of East Coast storms.
