A Journey To The End Of The Earth
Describe the experience of the author on Antarctica-“The end of the world.”
The experience of the author was amazing, alluring and mind- boggling. He was amazed to see the white stretch of sea under the blue horizon. It was a little bit odd to see a place without any human markers, but it was also thrilling to know that we were in a place which has the history of the mankind embedded deep into the layers of the ice. It was a great experience to walk on the frozen sea. To know that we were walking on a metre thick snow layers, under which there is a one hundred and eighty metre deep sea. It was an awe-striking experience. The experience was like walking on a ping-pong ball. It was great to see crabeaters and seals around. In the periphery, crabeater seals were stretching and sunning themselves on the floes much like stray dogs sitting under the shade of a banyan tree. The sight of collapsing ice–shields, breaking of ice-bergs and melting of ice was an eye-opener. It made the author and his team aware of the dangers the future times are having in their folds.
