THE COLDEST PLACE IN EARTH

The Arctic region is covered with snow and ice for almost the whole year. The temperature in the middle of the winter can go down to -60˚ F. (-51˚ C). When it gets this cold frost forms on eyebrows and eyelashes. It is colder than inside a freezer.

The areas where Eskimos live are covered by snow and ice most of the year. When they hunt in cold weather they wear clothes made out of caribou hide and sealskin. In the past Eskimos were nomads who lived in igloos made of snow in winter and tents in summer. Now most live in one place all year.

WARM CLOTHES TO WEAR

What animals do Eskimos hunt?
When Eskimos kill animals they use the meat for food, the fat for fuel and the hide for clothes.
Whale, Walrus, Seal, Salmon, Hare, Duck, Ptarmigan









FYI: Much of Alaska is covered with snow and ice. That means that it is hard to get fresh vegetables. The Eskimos include raw meat in their diet so that they can get enough vitamins.

HOT...HOT...HOT

THE WORLD’S HOTTEST PLACES



In North Africa and the Arabian Peninsula there are deserts where very little rain falls. In this region temperatures even in the shade rise to 100˚ F. (38˚ C) and sometimes can go as high as 120˚ F. (49˚ C), about the same as a very hot bath. The sand and stones in direct sunlight are hot enough to burn you if you touch them.




Deserts have almost no rainfall. But deep inside the earth underground rivers sometimes flow. People in the desert must dig deep wells to reach this water or they must find special places where the water has come to the surface. Such a place is called an oasis.

Sea slug

Has anybody ever try this food??
I think its taste is better than the "original look"



This is a sea slug. The taste is good man!
However, for some pepole it is a disgusting thing...
Unfortunately, I haven't found this food in US but quite many in Asia like in Korea & Japan...
