Description by ITMB: Antarctica is a fascinating part of the world. It is difficult to reach, and expensive to travel to, but it should be on everyones bucket list of must-see; travel experiences. The continent is rapidly (in geological terms) changing its shape as global warming eats away at the gigantic icefields that surround the land mass. Thus, our map shows the coastline as it was in 1980 and as it is today. The continent is fairly easy to approach nowadays, but only during the months of December through to end of February. Major cruise lines such as Holland America sail from ports in South America with thousands of passengers on board, so it is not quite the unusual adventure it once was, but is still an exciting and unusual experience. Our map shows not just the continent land mass but is loaded with interesting text blocks that are bound to contain information most people dont know, such as the fact that dinosaur bones have been found here or that Antarctica has three poles (the Arctic has two). The map of Antarctica covers all of side 1 and is very interesting for anyone planning a trip there, but Side 2 is also interesting, in that it covers Tierra del Fuego, the southern tip of South America, with an excellent inset map of Ushuaia, the most southerly city in the world. Among other points of interest, it shows the Beagle Channel, used for centuries by sailors to avoid the more treacherous route around Cap Hoorn (Cape Horn in English). It also shows an inset of the Falkland Islands, which are visited by many cruise ships.
