Going to Antarctica: A Daily Journal

by Robert B. Yonaitis, Timothy F. Melia

Going to Antarctica is the story of a seasoned traveler preparing and then setting out for the trip of a lifetime. Told from the perspective of a global adventurer, Going to Antarctica provides a delightful mix: on the one hand, practical travel tips, suggestions and advice; and, of course, the anecdotes, colorful descriptions, and stories that made the journey so memorable. The excursion follows the ship as it navigates through the Drake Passage. Then the team sets out on land, through the wilderness, and encounters the wildlife of the southernmost desert in the world. The explorers have some amazing experiences along the way, including camping in Antarctica. This is a must-read story for anyone contemplating a trip to the crystal desert, for lovers of wildlife, and for anyone fascinated with this foreign, frozen wonderland.

I was highly disappointed that there were no photos. The author spoke of taking so many pictures.. and then.. didn't post any. This is more a book about taking a week's cruise to Antarctica ports. As for the various wines he drank before his cruise and during his cruise.. who cares? Not a book I'd recommend to anyone going to Antarctica. The only reason I gave it two stars instead of one.. no major spelling errors.
