I just have missed this but that is so interesting you’re in Antarctica. What are you doing there?
I've been working mainly in Antarctica but I also work in the Arctic too occasionally ...I think I posted some pics of polar bears last year on #nostr I'd love to post all the pics I have but Internet is limited here and when I'm not in work I'm out touching grass with the wife and stacking sats πŸ«‚
There are so many cruises coming here in the summer months now it's becoming more accessible as time goes on. 5 years ago we would only see maybe 1 or 2 private yachts, but now there's quite a few big ships making the runs to the more accessible areas...with #bitcoin you'll soon be able to make her dreams a reality and pay for one of those cruises (currently <0.4BTC per person last I checked) Just be sure to go over 65Β° South...otherwise you didn't 'technically' go to Antarctica 🀭 (that's what I was told when I first went South to Palmer Station at 64Β° South..."you only visited the Peninsula"...πŸ™„)
It's well out of my price range tooπŸ˜…...I'm blessed to be gawk at its majesty and get paid to do so...the views and wild life are what keep me coming back year after year...it is beyond words, and pictures will never do it justice. And don't worry, it should definitely still be here for a couple more cycles at least...despite glaring evidence of glacial and ice shelf retreat, the enormity of the continent is truely staggering and would take a significant shift in atmosphere to destroy this environment...it is far more resistant to change than we humans are. Stack well and let's hope you and the wife will be here soon πŸ«‚πŸ‡¦πŸ‡Ά
