Napalm Frog Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 Just a reminder, if Ermete wants to go to the arctic, he needs to be at my doorstep by the 28th. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peterish Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 Just a reminder, if Ermete wants to go to the arctic, he needs to be at my doorstep by the 28th. :D Will he make it :( I want to see that. Let's make it happen please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrashG Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 If he's going to be close to the Atlanta, Ga area around 10/24/2009. I could take him to the track (Road Atlanta) for the Porsche Club Driver's Education event. I'm sure I can get Ermete a ride around the track and/or sitting in a car.

SkyyPunk Veteran Posted August 22, 2009 Veteran Share Posted August 22, 2009 :Pinned: So I assume it would be best to ship it off to Napalm Frog now, so he can get up to the Arctic Circle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Napalm Frog Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 (edited) So, unless things change, it's coming to me. Thus, it'll see quite a few places. I'm on a business trip to Ottawa, so unless anyone has reserved to do Ottawa, Ermete can tour the nation's capital for a few days. Then, off to the Arctic Circle! Itinerary is, Toronto Airport -> Edmonton Airport -> stop at Whitehorse, Yukon -> destination of Old Crow, Yukon. I'll take him for helicopter rides, and mountain hiking, and all that there is to do (or lack thereof) in wide open tundra. Note, it is the summer, so please get the picture of 100% snow out of your heads, hahaha. Though, there probably will be ice sheets still remaining in the thermokarstic terrain north of Old Crow. The most epic will be the mass caribou migration (think Planet Earth), so I'm hoping our three days of helicopter bookings coincides with that. And grizzly fattening season (pre-hibernation). Goo times. Then, coming back is via Dawson, Yukon and Inuvik, North West Territories, and Vancouver, British Columbia instead of Edmonton. So we get to tour lots of airports. And last but not least, see what few things there are to see in Waterloo, Ontario. Then, I'll have him shipped out to whoever is next (Toronto?) the week of the 14th in September. On that note, does anybody know what the policies are for taking pics inside of an airport? I'll be taking both my D50 and craptastic P&S L10 on this trip, so I'm wondering what is the best so I don't get raped by security, lol.

peterish Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Don't take pics inside airport. Period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkyyPunk Veteran Posted August 25, 2009 Veteran Share Posted August 25, 2009 Don't take pics inside airport. Period. LOL Just make sure to take all electronics out of their bags and put them into a bin Keep your boarding pass and ID with you Don't forget to take off your boots and belt before going through the metal detector That's it...besides that you can do just about whatever after you get in the airport Shipped off today to Mr Napalm, hoping it gets there in time! Shipping across the border is a pain :p If I had my passport, I would have just taken him over and mailed him from inside Canada! Ah well Added new pics of Ermete!

primexx Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 (edited) weee is Ermete going back down to the US after the arctic trip and then coming back up the west coast or are we going to do the canadian tour first?

Ji@nBing Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Haha. This is funny!! I'd be more than willing to take him next time I go to Beijing. I could get pics of him at the Great Wall and Forbidden City!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubbabyte Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 So where to myself and Moonman fit in.. we're not far from it's current location. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Napalm Frog Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 Well, I would assume those in southern Ontario would be up next simply due to proximity. Where are you guys abouts? I know quite a few people are from the Toronto region... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guyro Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 can we have a seperate place where the pictures are put so we dont have to go trawling through 17 pages to find the pics? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Napalm Frog Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 That's a great idea. I'm going to add a Bear Travels collection to my Flickr account, so that way everything is in one spot. If everybody could do something similar (using anything, like Flickr, Photobucket, a blog, etc) and then we post these to either the main page or the bear travels blog, that would be great! And update on Ermete: He has crossed into Canada! After being forwarded from Michigan to Ohio, he is now in the main FedEx hub of the GTA, in Mississauga. That means he will be in my possession either tomorrow, or Friday if I miss the first drop. EDIT: I'm thinking that Bubbabyte should get it next, as he stated it's a near Niagara Falls location, right? That would work great, because then he can be sent to Toronto, then unless there were other Ontarians, he can slowly head south or west. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubbabyte Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 Moonman is in T.O and i'm near niagara falls. I don't mind if i get it next, because i think moonman said he wanted me to take it first cause he was away.. but that may have changed. Either way we are all relatively close.
