In fact, traveling to Antarctica is far from crazy. It is not as scary as the public thinks. Although there are many rules to be followed due to environmental protection and other reasons, if there is a guide around, it is too much to say that it is life-threatening. It's so dangerous, who would travel to Antarctica?

So not only did the two of them not change their minds, they also directly ignored all kinds of attention on the Internet. Their visas were all done, and it was impossible to give up at this time, and they rushed to the airport without any hesitation.

The destination of the plane is Ushuaia, the southernmost city in the world. It is a territory of Argentina and located at the top of Tierra del Fuego in South America. The cruise ship they booked will set sail from there, after passing through the Drake Passage. Visit the Antarctic Peninsula.

But before that, they had to land in Dallas by plane, then transfer to Buenos Aires, and finally transfer to reach their destination.

The entire flight time is as high as 27 hours, including air tickets and boat tickets, and the total cost of two people is more than 41 RMB. This person has not even started to leave, and it costs hundreds of thousands.

For many people, the polar regions may really be a once in a lifetime trip.

The ship they ordered was the Ocean Nova cruise ship, which is a small ship that can only carry 68 people. Although it is a luxury type among small cruise ships with less than 100 people, most small cruise ships are transformed from scientific research ships, and they are still expedition ships. Mainly, the cabin facilities are relatively simple, and the accommodation is definitely not as comfortable as a large cruise ship.

The reason why we did not choose a large cruise ship with more than 300 people and less than 500 people is related to the rules for landing tourists in Antarctica.

The International Association of Antarctic Tourism Organizations stipulates that no more than 100 people can land at the same place at a time. A group of people can only go in the afternoon, and the group in the morning has to come back, that is, rotation.

If you do this every time you go to a location, it will take half of the time. The two of them would rather live almost in exchange for long-term activities on land. Coming to Antarctica is not to enjoy hotel-level services, let alone others. The conditions between the two are really not that bad.

As traveling partners, the two decisively chose to live in the same room. Although it was not bad for the money, if they lived separately, they always felt that something was wrong.

One of the characteristics of the Ocean Nova is that it flies over the Drake Passage at an extremely fast speed. It has a strong ice-breaking ability, so you don’t have to suffer from seasickness, and it also greatly saves travel time.

In fact, if you want to avoid seasickness in the Roaring Strait, the best way is to take a plane directly across, but Rong frame thinks that it seems to lose the meaning of travel, and you have to experience it completely before you can say that the trip is worthwhile.

By the time he boarded the ship, Rong Zhuo was actually a little bit listless, but he had been sitting on the plane for too long. If he hadn't developed his ability from years of business trips, he would have been dizzy after flying for more than [-] hours.

The travel package they choose is also relatively long. The general Antarctic tour does not need to cost such an expensive price of 20 yuan per person. In fact, they have to stay here for 22 days, and the ship will go through the Antarctic Circle at the farthest. The above is the most complete trip.

After boarding the boat, both of them chose to go to bed first, and they had to recover their spirits before they could work hard to build. After all, Antarctica is now in the polar day period, and it has always been daytime. It is their base, first sleep and recognize the bed.

However, when they fell asleep, they suddenly felt that the hull of the boat was shaking a little. They took a look at the mobile phone and found that five hours had passed, and they had slept a little too hard.

Looking out the window, it seems to be raining, anyway, the glass is blurred, so I can't see clearly what's going on.

"Would you like to go to the captain's cabin?" Their room is on the highest floor, and the end of the corridor is the captain's cabin. When they went to bed just now, they chatted with him for a while.

The captain is a Russian. I don’t know if it’s a good publicity or something. Anyway, he knows Rong Zhuang, the Sino-Russian friendship ambassador, and he looks very enthusiastic. When he came out of the captain’s room, he greeted the two people first.

"Guys, we're in luck, the sea in the Drake Passage is as smooth as silk today!"

Rong Hua and Yan Xuan stared blankly at the stormy sea outside the big window: "..." Is this... as smooth as silk?Are you serious? !

The two of them looked at each other speechlessly. We can only rejoice that neither of them has any reaction to seasickness so far, and it will take nearly a day to cross the entire strait. If you don’t mind going outdoors and being covered by waves all over your body, you can tie a heel around your waist Rope to visit the violent aesthetics of nature.

Not to mention, the Rong frame really went.

Yan Hyun just watched from behind the window, wearing a long white raincoat and running to the deck. Before he could go far, a wave hit him and he fell backwards instantly, and he almost didn’t come back. Somersaulted.

So, he began to doubt the correctness of himself and Zhuang'er coming out to "play around", always feeling that Jia'er was here to completely let himself go.

But this seems to be a good thing for both of them. Rong frame wants to release the pressure in this place where there is no country, and he seems to be able to do the same. I don't feel stupid if I do things in a frame.

Life on the boat is a bit difficult. Now the mobile phone is in a state of not being able to receive the Internet, and there is no way to spend time on the Internet, and even the phone calls may not be connected. During the long time, only food can comfort their boring hearts.

The breakfast on board is self-service, similar to sausage, bacon, beans, eggs, etc., but it is the same dish every day, it only depends on what you take, so you have to eat for more than 20 days. I don’t know if I will get bored up.

Due to the large number of people from Europe, America and South America on board, lunch is mostly homemade fast food such as steak grilled fish or hamburgers, plus a self-service salad. There is no rice or separate cooking, and all you can see is everything.

Only dinner can be ordered, and the appetizer-dinner-snack process is complete, providing two people with a very high interest in taking pictures.

In terms of taste, this is definitely the skill of a star chef. Maybe the high price is spent on the salary of the chef when the accommodation environment is not good, and the service is excellent, just like the first class on the plane , The cabin service staff will arrive as soon as they ring the bell, and even make the bed for you.

In addition to studying the daily recipes, the two of them mainly got to know a lot of people driven by time. For example, the two rooms next to them are two couples, one from the United States and one from China. The husband and wife are also the only three Chinese on board.

The Smith couple in the United States may be older, both over 60 years old, and the Chen couple in China are around [-]. To be honest, if you have money, you can afford the expenses here, unless the family is very rich, or you can earn money quickly from a business. industry, otherwise the age should not be too young.

They met at an auction held on a cruise ship. There is also a gym on the ship, which is also a good place for socializing. Rong frame always feels that he has learned something from talking with that uncle and aunt. It is a feeling of blessing to the soul, but you have to think carefully Words cannot be summed up.

At the auction, he also met Anthony, a big fat man who spends a lot of money. He is not too old, but his health is obviously not good. For some reason, his left foot is slightly sloped, and he is out of breath when he walks. You may not be able to come after seeing it.

His wife was going to come with him, but she was seriously ill for a while, so she couldn't go with her. He occasionally teased his wife for not being lucky enough to see the beautiful scenery, but he didn't say what kind of serious illness it was.

Most of the people on board seem very humorous and open-minded. No matter what their current situation is, anxiety and hesitation have never appeared on them. Some people will say that this is the power of money. Everyone on board has money, so They have confidence.

Rong frame agrees with a part, but he can't explain the reason for the part he doesn't agree with. Looking at brother Xuanxuan, it seems that there is more than he thought and got, which is what he is happy to see.

The environment of this trip is much better than he thought. Just the partners who travel together from all over the world make people feel happy. He believes that this will be a completely burden-free trip for his brother, at least no one He sees them as stars.
