Antarctica

Antarctica's mountains

I have never been one for the cold, but after reading about Antarctica, I have a new opinion.

I have always liked to ski and would like to ski in Antarctica. I would not like to ski down the mountains of Antarctica because the mountains are very large and icy. However, kite skiing sounds fun.  Kite skiing is when you are skiing on a flat surface, but pulled by a kite. It would be fun to ski with the power of the wind. At the same time it would be fun to see the beautiful and exotic landscape that makes Antarctica famous. I would also like to go dogsledding. Dogsledding is when dogs are pulling you over  flat ground. I have seen people do it in movies and think that it would be neat to try. I love dogs too. It would be interesting to learn how the dogs live in such remote climates.

Accomodations 

In the article I read, it described Antarctica as, “ Still remote and exotic. Now luxurious too.” It would be cool to experience Antarctica with all the comforts of a normal hotel. It would be nice to overlook the cold and rugged landscape, but at the same time be in a heated room. To travel to Antarctica you can take a plane or a cruise.  If you plan to stay, you could stay at a camp such as the Antarctic Ice Camp  . While there you stay in a comfy tent that is naturally heated by the sunlight. The camp is only accessible by air. This seems like a fun option.  It lets you enjoy Antarctica naturally.

How you arrive

One last thing that I would like to do, is to go on a long hike around Antarctica. I would like to spend a day wandering around and seeing everything Antarctica has to offer. I would like to see the mountains, and the animals, and see how they live in such cold conditions. Antarctica seems like a fun place to go and is much different from other places that I have visited in the past. I hope to be able to enjoy it one day.
