00:00Ladies and gentlemen, have a wonderful first day here in Antarctica, be sure to dress up

00:29warmly, and enjoy!

01:00It's like an explorer once said,

01:03now it's much easier for us to get here with this beautiful ship,

01:07but in principle it's a dream to make a trip like this.

02:30I'm a tourist who feels a certain guilt,

02:33to say that I took the plane to come here,

02:36I'm sailing on a ship, even if it consumes less than the others,

02:39and if there are no more plastic bottles,

02:41we still have an imprint that we can't deny.

02:59Thank you for watching!
