Antarctica anniversary

  • Antarctica anniversary

Today is the 100th anniversary of Roald Amundsen and his team's successful trip to the South Pole.

Next month I'm going to Antarctica with Holly, Sam and Joan to celebrate that trip and also Capt Robert Scott (who was a relative of ours) incredible voyage there. Sadly as you know he perished on the way home.

We're going on a boat organised by Al Gore to learn as much as we can from scientists and experts about where we are in the worrying cycle of Global Warming.
