Completing the bucket list: landing on the Antarctic continent

What a lucky trip to Antarctica Yesterday morning, I saw emperor penguins resting on the ice floe; at sunset in the evening, I saw a pod of killer whales cruising freely in the sea. This three-island Antarctic adventure can be said to be a grand slam with no regrets. Today we set foot on the Orne Harbor of the Antarctic continent, which is mainly the habitat of chinstrap penguins. We hike for 3 kilometers in the snow along the zigzag path and arrive at the 1,886-meter altitude line. There are 4-5 families of chinstrap penguins gathered here. On one side of the line, you can enjoy the scenery of the entire fjord, and on the other side, you can see the endless Antarctic continent. The Antarctic continent is about twice the size of Oceania. Almost all land is located within the Antarctic Circle. The continent is completely surrounded by the sea. It is the place with the windiest winds, the lowest humidity, and the lowest temperature on the earth. In winter, the temperature ranges from -70 degrees Celsius to -40 degrees Celsius. In between, winter is extreme night and summer is extreme day. The huge icebergs and ice shelves in Antarctica are unique in the world. Icebergs do not come from frozen seawater, but are condensed from fresh water on land. Icebergs start from snow that falls on the land, and the snow is squeezed into ice. Huge icebergs form over countless years and eventually slide into the sea. About 75% of the fresh water on land is frozen in the ice and snow of the Antarctic continent. This magnificent wilderness composed of ice, snow and rocks is home to a variety of wildlife, including whales, seals, fish, penguins, and a variety of birds in this environment Zhongan lives and lives. The Antarctic continent is facing many threats, such as climate change, overfishing and the number of tourists it cannot carry. For the survival of wild animals, humans must abide by the Antarctic Convention, not only to save the increasingly monotonous earth, but also to create more for future generations. A colorful home. In Antarctic there is nothing, but there is everything. #AntarcticContinent #Antarctic Peninsula #Antarctica #Emperor Penguin #White-browed Penguin
