The Endurance: Shackleton's Legendary Antarctic Expedition

I will likely be MIA for the next week or two and although I may not have time to be postin' daily I will still read/support your blogs.

For now I have Youtube links (since embedding was disabled by the user) to one of my favorite documentaries. If you are into early 1900's expedition history, more specifically the heroic age of Antarctic exploration, you will probably like it. It is about one of the most epic stories ever told, The Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition (1914-1917) a.k.a "The Endurance Expedition". Also, looks like those trapped Chilean miners are to be released today...I really hope they come out at night because after not seeing daylight for a couple of months I am sure it would be quite painful if they were brought up during daytime in the Atacama desert.
