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 the 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 Dash-7. But even when we were in the air, there was still a chance that 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 Research Station with mountains of ice all around. It’s about minus 2℃ 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 5℃, but it’s not very windy so it feels warmer. Those of us who are new to the station have to do a special training course before we’re allowed to go 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 (风景) 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 mountains of ice weren’t there yesterday.” It’s because the sea ice is always moving—slowly thankfully!
