30 day Activities :Kayaking with the whales and watching penquins and sampling local cuisine. 30 day Camping in Antarctica isn’t an activity for everyone — cozying up on the frozen ground in sub-zero temperatures isn’t everyone’s cup of tea. However, if you’re willing to sacrifice the luxuries of a comfy bed surrounded by four walls, you’re in for one of the coolest sleepovers you’ll ever have. While every boat tour company’s “campground” varies, one option could be Hovgaard Island on the west-facing side of the Antarctic Peninsula. Some outfitters provide tents while others opt for a more au natural experience of only a waterproof, cold weather sleeping bag (bivy sack) and thermal mat. Sleeping under the infinite number of Antarctica’s twinkling stars is a surreal experience and knowing there’s nothing between you and all of Antarctica’s frozen glory is truly a magical feeling. I've chosen the au natural for us. https://www.2foodtrippers.com/antarctica-food/#:~:text=Oh%20Pemmican%2C%20the%20.... Men need to increase their caloric intake to 4500 and women to 3900 to handle the temperatures. I'm assured we won't gain weight. https://www.adventurouskate.com/kayaking-antarctica/#:~:text=Kayaking%20in%20Ant.... The coordinating prompt for BCoF is on the forum and will be mailed directly just as this one is directly mailed. Please tag your response to the daily prompt post. Have fun, let your imagination take you where ever. Coffee and chocolate-- Pemmican and bannock-- meat and bread-- are foods I can consume together, along with chocolate-coffee, they set my taste buds watering. Hoosh-- sounds like an acquired taste-- please give me a second helping so that I can acquire the taste. Kayaking in Antarctica-- more fun than trick-or-treating in the snow in Oklahoma--3 makes going to one of the coldest places on Earth exciting. Kayaking in Antarctica is an adventure no human being should miss. Footnotes |
