Trip starts on January 1, 2011

My trip starts on January 1 and ends around January 31.  My trip is in support of a project for work.  I will first go to Sydney, Australia for a few days, then to Christchurch, New Zealand.  I leave on January 7th from New Zealand to go to Antarctica.  Here is the ice runway I land on and the military type plane (C-17 or C-130) I will take to Antarctica.  It is a 5 to 8 hour flight depending on the type of plane.  I will be staying at McMurdo Station: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McMurdo_Station
* It will be daylight the whole time I am there, no nighttime
