Antarctica

To describe Antarctica, nothing but superlatives will suffice. This five million square mile continent is at once the highest, coldest, windiest, driest, most barren and least known area in the world.

Wildlife is abundant here, including: fur, leopard, elephant and Weddell seals, blue-eyed cormorants and skuas, zigzagging pods of killer, sei, minke, and humpback whales; and the most whimsical of all, rookeries of squawking, waddling, penguins in all shapes and sizes.
