So, if you didn't already know - the Mayan calendar ends at the end of this December. Apocalypse or not, a bunch of hackers will be on a cruise heading to Antarctica.
On the cruise, toorcon will be holding conferences, where each attendee will give a presentation, and people will get to kayak/camp in Antarctica.

Quote:Antarctica is a world unto itself and this trip offers an additional two days to explore its majesty. Encounter leopard seals and immense rookeries of a variety of penguins. View dramatic glaciers and gaze at icebergs from the open deck. Experience the extraordinary marvels of the South Shetland Islands and the Antarctic Peninsula. Along the journey, your team of expert guides and lecturers will provide context to the sites and bring alive the region's remarkable natural history. You can join a kayaking excursion to experience the Antarctic from another vantage point or follow in the footsteps of bold explorers and experience the majesty of Antarctica first hand with a camping excursion.

The vessel will be able to hold 126 passengers and the expedition will last 13 days.
It will be during Dec. 10th-22nd and will cost $4,499 to $9,299 per passenger.

The whole thing with the Mayan calendar is a bunch of bull. The world is not going to end. They just got tired of hammering the calendar out and that is why it stopped, lol.

They should make a movie based on this. Or include a ride based on this in a theme park.
