Boston - NY - Buenos Aires

As the group of 42 SIErs began the trek to South America, bags started  to pack the charter bus. Emotions ran ramped changing from anxiety to excitement within seconds. Our first stop takes us to Logan airport where we will depart to New York around 5 pm. As we eagerly awaited our flight we created a Twitter account to document the adventures we were about to begin (@bryantsie2k15 if you were wondering). 
While going through security the TSA officer noticed Christopher Lloyd, Doc from the movie Back to the Future, was right infront of us! After starting conversation with his step son who is planning on attending Berkley University, or excitement began to climb even more.
 

 
 
While waiting for our flight to New York, the first snowfall of the winter began and our flight was delayed, of course. Games such as would you rather helped us to pass the time and get to know our trip mates before we took flight. Once in New York we headed onto a Boeing 777, one of the biggest planes I have ever seen, they had three rather large flat screen TV's. With a catered dinner and breakfast in the morning it felt like first class service while sitting in coach. 
 
 
 

9 hours into the 10 hour flight I began to watch the flight map on the tv projector infront of me. To me it seemed that no matter how much time had past, we never seemed to be getting any closer to the target, being Buenos Aires of course. This only built the anticipation and excitement for what was in store for us.
 


 
 
We finally touched down and made our way through customs, ready to take on South America!
