McMurdo
Temperature: minus 5 Celsius
Weather: overcast with light snow
We went to bed on time, got up at 6 am to make it to breakfast and to our 7 am transport time to South Pole. We waited for 2 hours for the weather to clear and from then on we were on stand by. We took the opportunity to get some exercise and walked up Observation Hill, got our email account and internet connection, and were told at 4 pm that all flights are canceled. A great chance for me to catch up with journal writing and posting pictures because at South Pole internet will be limited and each journal and each photo will have to be sent separately via email to be posted by Polartrec in Fairbanks.
I am walking with the carry-on bag to the transport hall to
to be transported to the LC 130 for South Pole
In the waiting hall... we are waiting for better weather so the plain can bring us to South Pole.
Weather delay gave us the chance to hike the Observation Hill
When hiking this trail to Observation Hill, one does not need to report it. Other hikes need reporting.
