Travel to Australia and NZ

Hi Obed.

Thanks for testing out the forum with your students! We will go over all the details about how to get to NZ and Antarctica in a pre-field phone call. But, the short answer is yes, eventually, you will need this but you don't need to worry about it now.

You all look like you are having fun already!
