As Ginni Bazlinton reached Antarctica, she found herself greeted by a group of little Gentoo penguins（企鹅）longing to say hello. These gentle, lovely gatekeepers welcomed her and kick-started what was to be a trip Ginni would never forget.

Ever since her childhood, Ginni, now 71, has had a deep love for travel. throughout her career（职业）as a professional dancer, she toured in the UK, but always longed to explore further. When she retired from dancing and her sons eventually flew the nest, she decided it was time to take the plunge.

After taking a degree at Chichester University in Related Arts, Ginni began to travel the world, eventually getting work teaching English in Japan and Chile. And it was in Chile she discovered she could get last-minute cheap deals on ships going to Antarctica from the islands off Tierra del Fuego, the southernmost tip of the South American mainland. "I just decided I wanted to go," she says. "I had no idea about what I'd find there and I wasn't nervous, I just wanted to do it. And I wanted to do it alone as I always prefer it that way."

In March 2008, Ginni boarded a ship with 48 passengers she'd never met before, to begin the journey towards Antarctica. "From seeing the wildlife to witnessing sunrises, the whole experience was amazing. Antarctica left an impression on me that no other place has," Ginni says. "I remember the first time I saw a humpback whale; it just rose out of the water like some prehistoric creature and I thought it was smiling at us. You could still hear the operatic sounds it was making underwater."

The realization that this is a precious land, to be respected by humans, was one of the biggest things that hit home to Ginni.

当Ginni Bazlington到达南极洲时，她发现自己受到了一群巴布亚小企鹅的欢迎(企鹅）渴望打招呼。这些温柔可爱的看门人欢迎她，开始了Ginni永远不会忘记的旅程。

现年71岁的Ginni从小就对旅行情有独钟。在她的整个职业生涯中(职业）作为一名职业舞者，她曾在英国巡回演出，但一直渴望进一步探索。当她从舞蹈界退休，她的儿子们最终成功了，她决定是时候冒险了。

在奇切斯特大学获得相关艺术学位后，Ginni开始周游世界，最终在日本和智利找到了教授英语的工作。正是在智利，她发现自己可以在最后一刻获得从南美洲大陆最南端火地岛前往南极洲的廉价船只交易。“我只是决定要去，”她说。“我不知道在那里会发现什么，我也不紧张，我只是想做。我想独自一人做，因为我一直喜欢这样。”

2008年3月，Ginni登上了一艘载有48名乘客的船，开始了前往南极洲的旅程。Ginni说：“从看到野生动物到目睹日出，整个经历都令人惊叹。南极洲给我留下了其他地方都没有的印象。”。“我记得我第一次看到座头鲸时，它就像史前生物一样从水中浮了出来，我以为它在向我们微笑。你仍然可以听到它在水下发出的歌剧般的声音。”

Ginni意识到这是一片珍贵的土地，值得人类尊重，这是最重要的事情之一。
