| Got£42,000 burning a hole in your pocket? Then you might want to blow it on a trip to the North Pole - not to a flag on the ice but to the 'real' pole, 2.7 miles down in the deepest part of the Arctic Ocean. Wildwings can arrange for you to be part of the inaugural 17-day expedition in August 2006 and see it for yourself from one of two MIR submersibles diving from the icebreaker Yamal, which takes up to 100 passengers. There may not be much to see down there, but if you go on one of these nine-hour dives you'll be among the very first humans to see it! |
