Bucket List - Antarctica

Why visit this last to be explored iceland, the "white continent"?  Here are a few good reasons:

  • It's a real wilderness adventure where you can see ancient ice flows, and see so much wildlife!  When you are done with all that active stuff, retreat on-board your luxury yacht and soak in those memories.  This is about as close as you are going to get to another planet.
  • For the history buffs, get a chance to see perfectly preserved camps made by those famous explorers - Shackleton, Robert Falcon Scott, and others. It may be an iceland, but it is also a desert. 
  • It is a photographer's nirvana - between the wildlife and natural scenery, you might just run out of memory.  No two trips are alike so you are guaranteed a unique shot. And if you travel during summer season (in the southern hemisphere), you'll also have almost 24 hours of sunlight to photograph the landscape.
  • It will give you a different perspective on life.  The sound of walking on icy snow, broken only by bird calls or the sound of waves.  People tend to feel a little small in comparison on this continent that is fiercely protected by a multitude of countries.
