My Dad's Trip to Antarctica - Shayde

Shayde's dad is in Antarctica so he has written a stroy about his exciting adventure!

My dad went to Antarctica. He went on a c17 plane. My dad is staying at McMurdo base which is  an American  Base. He took pictures of  himself in  the  snow and one is  of penguins.  There were 3  penguins in the photo  and an Observation tube and  Pressure Ridge. The Observation tube goes under the ice, but only one person can go down in it at a time.

The clip below is a Google Earth tour of some parts of Antarctica: I wonder what it would be like under the ice?
Do you have any questions that you would like to ask Shayde's dad about Antarctica?
