When the plane flew from Buenos, the capital of Argentina, to Ushuaia, Johnson sighed in his heart that he had finally arrived at the end of the world. In front of him was a small airport, with clean air and continuous snow in the distance, as if he had come to a peaceful paradise.

The first step you have to pass on a luxury cruise and go to Antarctica is to cross the Drake Strait, which is praised by the world as the Devil Strait, and is located in the corridor of death between the southern tip of South America and the Southern Shetland Islands.

It is 00 kilometers long, 900-950 kilometers wide, with an average water depth of 400 meters and a deepest depth of 4750 meters. It is the widest and deepest strait in the world. It is said that if two Huashan Mountains and one Hengshan Mountain are stacked into the strait, even the top of the mountain will not be exposed to the sea.

After dozens of hours of bumpy ride, the first sight of the Antarctic continent is a beautiful scenery that cannot be breathed: countless snow-capped mountains shine with blue light under the reflection of the sea; glaciers pile up with crystal clearness and purity that cannot be described...

I have been to the glaciers, but the feeling is completely different. In front of me is the most beautiful scenery between heaven and earth. The wind hurts a little on my face, and there is only the occasional sound of the glacier melting in my ears. There is no need to scale the time. Just open all senses, listen with your ears, and feel the beauty of nature with your heart. At this moment, I am so free and happy.

Finally stepped onto the last continent in the wind and snow. The snow was very heavy. You had to walk along the path of the expedition team, otherwise you would fall into the snow nearly one meter deep. From the commanding heights, you could overlook the two bays, a pure white world, breathing the air from the southernmost part of the world. Antarctica was not as cold as you imagined, drifting snowflakes, floating ice on the sea, and albatrosses flew across the sea.

The whales that were originally undesirable can be seen everywhere here. They breathe, eat, dive, and suddenly jump out of the water less than 100 meters away from the cruise ship and turn over beautifully. The splashes brought by their huge figure are very exciting and really satisfying.

Not far away, I found a leopard seal sleeping, chubby with her left hand holding her right hand, like a big doll, and the golden penguin jumped from the sea to approach us. It was so cute.

The mountains in the distance were like different animals, holding the bay, but unfortunately the sea ice suddenly cracked, so we could only retreat to the boat, a wonderful ice adventure.

Every time Antarctic landing site is random. After continuing to move forward in the Leimaire Strait, due to the thick ice layer, the icebreaker was docked in the hidden bay at the entrance of the Lima Waterway. Everyone took a rubber boat to cruise the bay, watching the icebergs, and seeing the roar of the icebergs suddenly collapsed.

Walking on the blue ice floating on the sea, there are Antarctic terns and penguins on the ice, tied up several rubber boats, and then steamed with coffee and chocolate, plus a little Bailey sweet wine. This sense of ceremony is really great, like a carnival queuing on the antarti ice.

From landing to climbing the snow-capped mountains, I smelled the stench, which was the penguin's poop. There were a large number of penguins on the small exposed stone slope on the top of the mountain. This is the gathering place for the Jintu penguins.

There is a kind of beauty called slight fat. They sway when walking, and they are painted with orange lipstick in black and white. They are very eye-catching. The round and bulging figure is inexplicably loved. They work hard every day to build stones to build nests and hatch eggs, go to the sea to catch fish, and they are also lazy to take a nap in the snow, be cute, pretend to be stupid, and be handsome.

In the snow and ice, a ball of black and white swaying to you, easily fascinating your heart. Finally, we arrive at the large habitat of penguins, from the huge number of Adeli penguins, to Papua penguins, and then to the hat-belly penguins.

From the initial freshness, they may be chasing courtships, building nests with stones, hatching, and the little penguins breaking out of their shells, feeding, and hunting on the way to the beach...

This is the penguin. Compared with those in South Africa, it is simply...

Look at glaciers here, the white world covered with ice and snow, the sea is calm and the waves are almost dark at this time, and before the sun sets, the light shines on the snow-capped mountains, bringing a warm yellow.

The blue ice floes are scattered in the sea, with loneliness and romance. The ice and snow begin to melt, and penguins begin to nest and hatch eggs. The recovery of the sea water brings a lot of krill and fish, attracting the arrival of whales.

I waited on the deck of the stern until the sun set at twelve o'clock in the evening. The cold wind blew, and the warm yellow brought by the sun before the distant ground level was an unforgettable good memory.

The next day, I met a humpback whale again at close range. She was the second largest in the ocean and had a huge body. Although she was full of pimples, she was gentle and well-behaved and often appeared on the sea. Her wonderful performances were pleasing to the hearts.

Standing on the deck, a group of humpback whales surrounded the side of the ship, as if to say goodbye to everyone, reluctant to part with them, and lingering in all directions. Even if the whales were sprayed with confusion, they were still as excited as children with Santa Claus candy.

There was a large piece of yellow floating on the sea in the distance. It was a group of krill. According to the tour guide's estimate, the total weight could reach 10 million tons! It was equivalent to about 14 million people, exceeding the total population of Britain and Germany.

A mature humpback whale can eat 4 million krill every day, weighing about four tons. It overeats every day for 6 consecutive months, put on a thick layer of fat, and then starves for several months. The food eaten every day is equivalent to the total amount of food for a person in four years.

When they were watched by them, there was a magical feeling of "Xiaoyaoyou" in the beginning of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", which was named Kun. Kun was so big that it was thousands of miles away.

The giant turned its tail in front of us, a rain curtain rose up, or a rainbow was spewing out. The whale was playing in the sea, curious about humans, and was not afraid at all. He didn't even know that it was the 20th century whalers who searched south and discovered this continent.

May these ocean elves always be in the depths of the blue and be gentle by nature.

I got ashore at noon and walked on the tour guide. When I was tired of walking, the craziest thing was to sleep directly in the snow. I dug out 8 deep camping holes alone and then drilled into the sleeping bag. The cold first feeling was the coldness in capital!

The glacier ice cap that has been covered with millions of years, the transparent ice floes and iceberg crystal world, SC Johnson fell asleep, which was so beautiful that it was too unreal. Of course, it was just a nap, otherwise...

When I packed my luggage, I heard that this area was easy to encounter ice collapse. The tour guide warned everyone not to stay for too long. Just as everyone was hiking, a rumbling suddenly came from behind, without any warning. When I turned back, the collapsed ice had fallen into the water, leaving only layers of waves. It's no regret!

Then I stopped and waited. With a huge muffled sound, the glacier cliff collapsed, causing waves to scattered to the fjord. Later, ice collapses occurred several times one after another. This shock involved time and space. No one could tell how long the prehistoric time had been accumulated in ice and snow. In an instant, it fell into the sea and returned to peace. A sense of awe arose.
