It is always a bit of a problem when trying to archive anything. You only have to think of your own photographs (mine span over forty years), original printed photographs are still pretty viable now but digital ones have problems with the storage medium. Floppy disks are now defunct, hard drives do not last forever, there's USB drives but they are not that long lived, cloud storage but how long will that technology continue.

Still, some people get an interesting holiday in an unusual place. And get to see polar bears.
