A story about a 86 year old woman taking a trip to Antarctica to hang out with penguins.
She is cantankerous and has had a rough lot in life, which become clear through a long lost grandson reading the diaries she wrote as a young woman.
Her grandson is a bit lost and the diaries bring them together.
Its quite emotional in parts but and I quite enjoyed it.
