Fifth Continent

I am going to Mount Takahe in Antarctica. Antarctica has no capital and their is no other contrys bordering Antarctica. the olny ocean is the southen ocean. 76°18′S 112°06′W / 76.3°S 112.1°W these are the GPS coordinates of my location. Itis the coldest place on earth. A pill of snow.Takahe was probably among those viewed from a distance by Admiral and other members of the USAS in plane flights from the ship Bear on Feb. 24 and 25, 1940. It was visited in December 1957 by members of the Marie Byrd Land Traverse Party, 1957 to 58, who applied the name. "Takahe," the Maori name for a flightless, almost extinct New Zealand bird. Ti was about 12000 milles a way. I sailed on a ship with a couple of frends that are scientist so it was free.

The next place I am going is mt Erebus in antarcia. Discoverd on 1/27/1841 bypolar explorer sir Jamrs clark Ross. It was 1st climbed by members of sir Ernest Skackleton's paty in 1908. Antarcia is it's contry and has no capital. It has no srounding countrys it is sround the southen ocean.It is the coldest place on earth.It looks like a mount coverd with snow and a big hole in it. It is important because it has an observatory there where scientist study research on the volcano, how it degassing behavior acts and its impact on the Antartic and global environment.
