Look at me, colour coordinated to match the sky!

Just a quick note:

Here's the answer to the most common question I am being asked at the moment...
when am I coming back?

I'll be leaving Antarctica in Jan 2008 and sailing to Cape Town. From there I plan to travel for a couple of months in Africa, then possibly catch the end of the snowboarding season in the Alps before heading back to Britain sometime in April. That's the plan at the moment (it'll probably change but I'll let you know).


The almost sun...

With just two weeks to go until sun up, we've all got rainbow twilight running through our veins!

Every month we loosen the stays on the masts we use for radio communications and science to compensate for the snow accumulation. This time it was a great excuse to admire one of the best almost sunrises so far.


High on light, Dave overdoes the kiting and stops for a quick nap between practicing his rodeo flips and attempting to break the world land speed record.

My kite, on the other hand, was not behaving so nicely but at least that left me plenty of time to take photos!
