It’s somewhere I’ve always wanted to go.
Having done news for radio stations in Tasmania, where many of the research vessels are based between trips to the Antarctic, I’ve developed a love for this mysterious wilderness. In fact, when I used to drive down Mount Tamborine at 2.30am on my way to work, the ABC used to have a weekly segment with one of the scientists based at Mawson’s Hut. His vivid description of life on the ice intrigued me no end.
Would you believe in the past week I’ve discovered that rather than having to do a big expedition, leaving from Argentina – there’s a flight over the brilliant white THIS SUNDAY, leaving from Melbourne!!
I was prepared to sell the house and defy Doctor’s orders to get on the plane, until I found out I have to have another operation.
Only one thing to say – I’m ANGRY ABOUT ANTARCTICA.
