Antartica

Hi, Shack

I hope everything is going fine and wish you are having a great time. You see I heard about your trip that you made to the Weddel Sea and that you had to survive for to whole years out on the sea!!! So I would like to ask you some questions about that grueling trip. First, what was the first thought that crossed your mind while you saw land fade away and you going out into the open sea? And, what were the first directions you gave to the crew, and what did they sayed at the time you were completely lost? How did you manage to survive against the giant walrus and how did you react when the boat freezed and sank into the sea??? Well I would appreciate that you have the time to answer my questions.

Sincerely,

Isabel

My eyes were red and hurt because of the cold and I had been years traveling on sea....but could this be real? Maybe this was one of my other thousands mirages that I had had. I lost all hope and just sat back waiting for the mirgae to leave my had and really see what was in front of me....sea. Just then I heard up from high "LAND!" What? Could it be true? I got up and saw again at what I had called a mirage...it was truly land!!! I screamed and started to jump in the air! It was true after years of being in the sea seeing land was being in heaven itself. I started to follow Shack's directions.All of the boat that once looked like a ghost ship now was filled with life. All men in the boat with their cracked hands, lips, their horrible smell started to pull strings and take out the sail. I was so happy, I thought I would never see again my wife. I had a huge smile in my face that I just couldn't take off. Soon we were in land people soon recognized us and inmediately started to bring food and other things that I had needed in that trip. They also called a helicopter to take us all home. After a while a heard I terrible sound...we all ran to the boat, but we were to late it had sank and was now frozen.

The ship Endurance was a great lost, we would all miss but at least now we were save in land and soon to be back to our families.
