Antarctica flight to Mario Zucchelli station

To reach Antarctica is an adventure, as happened hundred of years ago, a log journey that gives really sense of travel. I remember tears washing my face at airport when I said bye to my parents and my sister, we all knew this adventure was not an easy one and with possibility to be one way ticket. Antarctica is far, and Concordia is more far than other places on Earth. After two days of flight to reach NewZealand I forgot tears and my mind was ready for a big jump. Two days delay due to a broken window in C130 airplane...than a perfect weather. It is time to call at home....time is right we will flight tomorrow... Next morning wake-up, be ready with Antarctica clothes in the middle of Southern Summer season. The C130 is there on the landing strip ready to go. It is full of materials and 60 seats. My name is on the charging list with vegetables and scientific instruments. Five hours of flight on ocean are waiting me. First three hours clouds cover ocean, just fluffy white clouds are visible, inside the airplane noise is unbelievable., in order to save wight interior of the plain do not exists. Pilots check position using the Sun, compass doesn't work anymore...magnetic pole is not where geographic's one is. They need to point where compass needle sign north to go more deeper south. Spots on clouds, water dotted blue and white. Minutes later clouds disappear and the sea ice and Antarctica continent become reality. Half hour before landing the beginning of trans-antarctic mountain chain is under me. I realize that no one of those peaks have never felt human noise, human warmth, human touch. Five hours passed, it is time for landing. Huge C130 will land on a sea ice, 70cm of strong ice separate me from 600m of cold water. Landing is very soft. Door open...it is time for first step on ice...just be careful ice is slippery I don't want to conclude my Antarctica adventure at first step. Outside is strange, I am walking literally on a sea but view looks like high mountain view, no trees no animals. I still not realize where I am.
