Most amazing thing in my life

21st March, 2008

Hey Guys, Today I witnessed the most amazing thing I have ever seen in my life. It shocked me so much I couldn’t move a mussel, I couldn’t reach out for my camera to take a picture of it. I’m surprised I didn’t forget to breath.

Imagine our beautiful ship floating in Charlotte’s Bay right next to an ice berg. Surrounded by hills and cliffs some so high the top was blocked by the clouds We where sitting on a cliff witch was fully covered in snow, getting a leadership on the edge class while enjoying of the magnificent view.

Right at that moment the most unexpected thing happened. The ice berg that was floating right next to our ship started breaking down. The ice berg was about 3 times the size of out ship when it started to break down. At the end almost half of it was gone and it started to tilt upwards and then fell to the side. All other sound faded away, you could hear the ice crack and break down. It was as if the ice was crying while it broke down and landed in the water with the fade sound of an explosion.

If in the future I need something to bring my mood up and keep working hard this is the kind of tough ill think back to. That was the exact reason why we can’t stop fighting to protect Antarctica
