Falklands,UK

Also known as the Malvinas. Very cold, windy place- I have spent two weeks there- Sea Lion, Sanders,Pebble, and East Falkland islands. I came back and visited Bleaker for three hours during my Antarctica trip. The whole place is covered with dried bird poop. I really do not know why anybody wants to live there- too cold and harsh. The national pastime is gossiping. From what I heard, it is pretty bad.
If Antarctica is too expensive, try this place. You can ask me questions or contact: http://www.falklandstravel.com and ask for Sally. This gallery is complete
