Antartica


I have just arrived in Antarctica and I am only staying for a couple of hours because it is so cold. Antarctica is the world's southern most continent. It is situated in the southern hemishpere. Around 98% of Antarctica is Ice, which averages 1.6 km in thickness. At 14.4kmsquare, it is the fifth largest continent in area after Africa, Asia, North America and South America.
