The Brilliant Blizzard
The most important, whitest, windiest and iciest place in the world is… Antarctica. Antarctica is a very fascinating place. The white, and the ice just makes me wonder about the history and how everything just came to what it is now. Antarctica used to be at the top of the world but throughout the years it came to the very bottom. 
Antarctica sounds like people are right next to you whistling so loud into your ear. The ice of Antarctica sounds like a cold crackling fire. The ocean sounds like heavy splashes of water into your drink. The crashing icebergs sound like bags of ice getting smashed by a hammer. It sounds so amazing. Antarctica is the best place in the world.
Antarctica feels like frostbite is nipping the end of your toes off. Antarctica feels like you're sleeping outside in a pool on a cold winter's night. Antarctica feels like you are a snowball and the cold never stops. Here in NZ when it is winter we think it is quite cold but you should feel what it's like in Antarctica. In the summer here we have the sun stretching fiery fingers down on us and it is just amazing but down in Antarctica it is sunlight all the time but it is still freezing.
Antarctica looks like the biggest mountains covered in hundreds of snow layers. The snow is the whitest thing you have ever seen. The colors are like the most beautiful things ever. It just makes me speechless.
In my opinion Antarctica feels freezing and bone-chilling. Sounds extraordinary and mind blowing. Looks amazing and the best place in the world.
Another great effort Phoebe. The words you have used create very clear images in my mind as I read. I don't think I would like the cold if I was to visit Antarctica. I like how you link your writing about Antarctica back to the conditions here in Christchurch.
