But later on the ship in Antarctica, someone shared the story of Antarctica and mentioned this ship. I just remembered that it had been to Antarctica, returned gloriously, and then docked at this pier. And at that time, the ship encountered strong winds and waves when crossing the Drake Passage. Because the captain was inexperienced, he did not dare to continue driving. Then he begged an experienced old captain who he looked down on at first to continue driving the ship. Only then was it able to successfully cross the Devil's Westerly Belt and return to Argentina.
The following pictures were taken with a mobile phone, and they look a bit overexposed.
Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo were so tired after walking that they didn't even want to hold the camera. It was afternoon and the time difference was causing them to feel like falling asleep while walking on the street.
Haha, but Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo were still quite shocked when they walked along July 9th Avenue. Even in the streets of Beijing, they had never seen such a wide road. Although it was wide, it was well-ordered.
9 de Julio Avenue, also known as 9 de Julio Avenue, was named in commemoration of Argentina's independence on July 9, 1816. It is 4.6 kilometers long, 148 meters wide, and has 18 lanes.
The lanes are evenly separated by two median strips, with 6 lanes in each section. There are traffic lights at every intersection, including pedestrian traffic lights, which are very convenient for both vehicles and pedestrians. Moreover, it runs through the city from north to south and is the widest street in the world so far. The obelisk standing on Avenida 79 was built to commemorate the 400th anniversary of the founding of Buenos Aires.
After Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo got on the bus, the tour guide said that Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo were going to the vicinity of Congress Square. Because the security in this place was really bad, she did not recommend Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo to get off the bus. At that time, everyone was sleepy and tired, so they looked around in the bus. There were very few people around. Other tourists who got off the bus here were indeed robbed. So when you are outside, safety comes first. There is a row of tents at the door of this place, which are said to be people who are petitioning.
Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo were really tired in the end. After shopping and returning to the hotel, Nalan Shiqi took a nice nap for a while. Of course, they still had to wait until at least 9 o'clock to eat.
One day in Argentina. Very satisfying, I felt like I was soaked up in the warm sunshine, and I slept very soundly that night.
This day was the first day of the trip to Antarctica, because in the afternoon of this day, Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo boarded the chartered ship of Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo - Ponant Cruises Corona Borealis! There are many ships to Antarctica in Ushuaia. This city has tourists from all over the world. Some of them will wait here for several months just to wait for a ticket to Antarctica. So although this is a port to Antarctica, it is still not easy to easily buy an affordable and safe ticket. After all, it is to Antarctica and not any other place. To go to Antarctica, you have to pass through the Devil's Westerlies. How many people have been swallowed by that place? So the first priority when going to Antarctica is safety!
Today, Nalanshiqi and Yunluo found that they were a little closer to the South Pole. After breakfast, they gathered on the bus to the airport. Buyi's domestic airport is relatively small and feels very crowded. The tour guide told Nalanshiqi and Yunluo that many pilots went on strike in the past two days, which caused the airport to be more congested today because they were dissatisfied with the salary system.
Although hearing this news did not affect Nalan Shiqi's good mood. There are a lot of big locust trees on the streets of Buyi, and each tree is very tall. And the flowers are golden yellow. When Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo came, it was the flowering season of locust flowers, so people with sensitive noses like Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo can always smell the faint fragrance of flowers, and the golden color all over the ground is beautiful.
Look at the picture below, which was taken on the bus. I just think this kind of place is perfect for an outing. With family or friends, there is sunshine and shade.
The picture below is very ordinary. I just want to tell you that this river is the Parana River passing through Buenos Aires. This river is the second largest river in South America, second only to the Amazon River. This place is the confluence of the Parana River and the La Plata River. Nalan Shiqi forgot the exact length and width, but it is a square haha.
Because when the tour guide told Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo, a super large square lake appeared in Nalan Shiqi's mind. After all, the rivers in Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo's impression were all long.
It is said that this place is where the rich people of Buenos Aires often go for outings. They drive here on weekends, bringing all kinds of food and tents, and stay here for one night. Of course, some people also come here to fish, take a boat ride, etc.
The whole plane was filled with Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo's teammates, couples and friends who were not together. As soon as they got on the plane, they started changing seats o(n_n)o haha~
It takes more than 4 hours to fly from Buenos Aires to Ushuaia. Everyone was very excited about this journey. We were given three or four packs of snacks on the plane.
They also played a show that people in other countries like to play pranks on people on the street. Everyone was watching and laughing. It was a pleasant trip.
There is only one baggage exit at Ushuaia Airport, so Nalan Shiqi and Yun Luo had to wait for a while before they could get their luggage after getting off the plane.
Anyway, this is definitely a super shocking scene. Many foreign tourists will be surprised when they see it. Haha. There are so many people in Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo's group. I haven't taken a full photo yet.
After you get off the plane and claim your luggage, the travel agency will put it here for you to look after. Each piece of luggage has a luggage tag issued by them, on which your name and the room number of the cruise ship that has been allocated in advance are written. When the time comes, they will transport it to the ship and the staff on the ship will distribute it to each room. There will be no mistakes.
Suddenly coming here from a warm place, although it is also early summer, it is very cold, of course, it is because Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo are not wearing much. There are even sandals and skirts worn by her sister, which Nalan Shiqi admires very much.
In short, as soon as I left the airport, a cold wind blew instantly, but when I saw the snow-capped mountains and large white clouds in the distance, my mood suddenly became better.
Well, take a look at the picture below. That small wooden house with a blue sloping roof is the Falkland Islands International Airport located on Tierra del Fuego, the southernmost island in the world. It is definitely a super small airport and an air gateway to Antarctica.
Nalan Shiqi and Yun Luo arrived. In fact, Nalan Shiqi likes this small airport very much. The interior is made of wood and low-key. It gives Nalan Shiqi the feeling that he is a smiling local handsome guy standing there to welcome tourists from all over the world to Antarctica.
Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo took a bus on the way to Tierra del Fuego National Park, admiring this small city halfway. On both sides of the road were small wooden houses of various colors, just like those in fairy tales, with the background being the snow-covered mountains. It is said that there were only 3,000 people in this place at the beginning, and the mountains were closed due to heavy snow before winter. Later, the Argentine government encouraged people to come here to develop and build factories, and the number of talents gradually increased to 70,000.
Many people may ask, why do we have to go to Antarctica from here? Of course not. There are many places to go to Antarctica, such as Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, etc., but it is not without reason that this place is called the end of the world. It only takes two days to cross the 1,000-kilometer Drake Passage from the port of Ushuaia to Antarctica. This small town has all the advantages. Many Antarctic research ships resupply resources here.
The benefits of being a vegetarian are self-evident. As for the downside, it’s that you’re too sensitive to these smells, especially in a confined space, your stomach will churn (⊙o⊙)…
We had lunch in the national park. Well, it was a specialty of Argentina --- barbecue! There were lamb, chicken, etc. Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo could only eat bread and salad. At first, they ate some before the meat was served, but they couldn't help it after it was served.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
We stayed in Ushuaia for only one day. For others, the most impressive thing might be the king crabs. But for Nalan Shiqi, the most impressive thing was the large patches of dandelions.
Nalan Shiqi has never seen such a large field of dandelions in her life. It feels great. Nalan Shiqi loves dandelions, the golden flowers and the seeds that travel everywhere when blown. Nalan Shiqi doesn't know why there are so many of these flowers here, or if it's because this small town is like a dandelion, free, beautiful and low-key.
A place like the post office sounds ordinary, but nothing can escape the word "most".
That’s right, the southernmost post office in the world, this title will always attract some people’s attention. In fact, Nalan Shiqi suddenly realized when writing here that although the post office in Tierra del Fuego has always been called the southernmost post office in the world, it seems not right, because later on the ship Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo learned that there is also a post office in Antarctica and there are people stationed there, and they can get the real Antarctic postmark, (⊙o⊙)…
But no matter what, this post office in Tierra del Fuego is very famous, so Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo decided to go there.
This small world may seem lonely to many people. It is a small house of less than 6 square meters, with iron outside and wood inside. Every day's work is to stamp and count money. Outside the door is the sea with waves, and you can pick some seaweed from time to time (⊙o⊙) In short, if you were assigned to work here, would you be willing?
Nalan Seqi answered first: If it was Nalan Seqi alone, Nalan Seqi would definitely not come, but it would be almost the same if Nalan Seqi Yunluo came with her. And Nalan Seqi would definitely set up a table outside for Nalan Seqi Yunluo to open an extra place to stamp o(n_n)o haha.
Well, Nalan Shiqi was so busy taking photos of Yunluo that she only managed to take photos of the lid of the orange mailbox, which is the round thing in the picture below. (To be continued...)
