International Antarctic Centre

Hello everyone,

Today mum and I went to The International Antarctic Centre while  John went to mush the huskies.  

We started with the Hagglund ride. It is a special vehicle that can climb steep hills and rough terrain. The ride was very bumpy but I enjoyed it. 

Then we watched the keeper feed the penguins. The penguins shiver when they are hot but I shiver when I am cold. The penguins were fed little fish. I like to see the penguins swim in the water. 

This was followed by watching a 4D  movie [The Small Foot]. The theatre had  special effects  like snow storm, water spray and the seats shook during the exciting parts. 

I also went to pat and had my photo taken with a husky. Its fur is so soft and the huskies were so gentle.  

After that we went to the Storm Dome. It was so cold [-18'c] and I only lasted a few minutes in there. 

We also went to the Antarctic Gallery where I  learnt the about the food chain; 
krill <---gets eaten by---> penguin <---gets eaten by ---> seal <---gets eaten by---> killer  whale.
 
Mum and I ate at  the cafe while waiting for John to finish his programme. I enjoyed myself very much today and my favourite part was the Hagglund ride.
