Lizzie-s diary from Antarctica (南极洲)

Day 3: Tuesday   December 2

We planned to go to Rothera that morning. We’d be staying there for the next two weeks. Because Antarctica is the windiest place on earth, sometimes you can’t fly at all.

We had a nervous wait over breakfast to find out if we’d be leaving that day. People have to stay in Stanley for weeks while the pilots wait for good weather

It turned clear at 9:30 and we took off at 10:30 on a little red plane called a Dash-7. But even when we were in the air, there was still a chance we wouldn’t be able to fly the whole day.

Day 4: Wednesday   December 3

After waking up in the Antarctic for the first time today I can understand why

everybody who comes here falls in love with the place. It is really beautiful.

   We’re staying at Rothera Survey base with mountains of ice all around. It s about minus 20C today, which for me is very cold, but the regulars(常客) here are often seen walking around in T-shirts !

Day 5: Thursday  December 4

    I woke up to another beautiful sunny day here in the Antarctic. I’m told it’s a bit colder

today, about minus 50C , but it’s not very windy so it feels warmer. Those of us who are

new to the bas have to do a spccial training course before we're allowed to go off base to

other stations or to go snowboarding over the nearby hill.

Day 7: Saturday  December 6

     Not a cloud in the sky and it’s warm enough to sit outside (in a jacket).

     The most amazing thing about this place is how the scenery (凤景) changes every day.

At first I thought I was going mad. I’d step outside in the morning and think, “I’m sure that big mountain of ice wasn’t there yesterday.” It’s because the sea ice is always moving—slowly thankfully !
