The plane trip was long enough to do a lot of the work there, and then on the ship I had plenty of free time to work on schoolwork. Q: How do you plan to use this unique experience in the context of your public education? Feel free to elaborate on any upcoming school projects that will result from this trip. Ariana: For Latin class, I wrote about the trip in a small booklet for a project. I essentially retold the main points and summed up my favorite experiences, although I recounted them in Latin. Rhianon: Some of the things we talk about in class, such as ecosystems and plant life, I’ve seen in real life and can understand better. Having been down near the Antarctic tundra, I know that the ecosystem there isn’t very diverse. Q: As you look back on this trip, what was the most amazing part of the experience? The most fun part of the experience? The most challenging part of the experience? The most delicious part – that being the best food!

Although I’ve seen them in photos, they’re breathtaking. It felt very surreal to be seeing them in person, and the sheer size of them was shocking. The most fun experience for me was walking around some of the ports the ship docked at, particularly Ushuaia in Argentina. I loved seeing the differences in architecture and plant life, which were quite different from Saugus. More particularly, they had many sculptures and other works of art around the port, which were interesting to see. Because we only ate once off of the ship, most of the food I ate was relatively generic, although it was definitely very well prepared. When we did eat out – in Chile – the food was quite good. Chile’s biggest economy is salmon farming, so I tried salmon when we had lunch there, and it was definitely a good choice. Rhianon: The most amazing part of the experience was probably seeing all of the beautiful landscapes. The sunsets look so beautiful next to glaciers. Further north in South America the night sky is so dark. I also noticed that the color of the water was so much more saturated around the Antarctic than anywhere I’ve seen around here. The most fun part of the trip must’ve been seeing Gentoo penguins at the Falkland Islands. I’ve always dreamed of seeing penguins in person, since I was little. Finally seeing them – and seeing them so close – made me feel awestruck that I got to see everything at such a young age. A lot of people never get to see many of the things that I saw. The trip was, surprisingly, not so challenging. Compared to what others had to live through in the past when exploring the Antarctic, it was quite easy. We had fresh food and water, and very nice living quarters. However, it was my first time on a plane trip, and it wasn’t fun being on a plane for 10 or more hours, and then wait around in an airport for a few more. The most delicious food was probably the ice cream and sorbets. They had many unique flavors, such as honey, pineapple, apple cider and honeydew.
