「EXPLORE ANTARCTICA」

Hello! I’m Mio.

Today I had normal classes until the third period. After that, we
visited the Explore Antarctica near the airport.


First, we learned about penguins in Antarctica and the penguins that
live at the centre. It was very interesting.


Next, we met some huskies. They were very big and very cute!


After that, we rode a special vehicle that is used in Antarctica. It
could drive easily on rough roads and steep hills, which surprised me.


Then we learned about the history of Antarctica and the Explore
Antarctica and we watched a 3D movie about Antarctica. We also entered
a room that was -8°C and experienced very strong wind. It was
extremely cold!

After school, I went shopping with my friends. There were many
products that we don’t have in Japan, so it was hard to decide what to
buy. I also tried some food and drinks, and they were very delicious!
