"I am so excited to be ready to go", she said. Lisa Blair, 32, intends to become the first woman and only the third person in history to circumnavigate Antarctica. Her voyage will also attempt to break the time record held by Russian Fedor KONYUKOV set in 2008.

Well it was a really successful trip apart from the fact the Lisa is still here and I am back in QLD.......... just a little hic cup.  I have watched Lisa work sooooo hard for 3 years solid towards this moment. She had set her goal and focused on nothing else.
