This is the chronicle of a humble kitchen assistant...working in a tent...on a glacier...in the Antarctic...for three months.

Fuck a Doodle Doo
We're back in the hotel...on standby...till this afternoon.
At least we got as far as the departure lounge and it is snowing now in Punta so it has a sort of Antartctic feel.

We're off!
Lightening out of a clear blue sky! looked like there was no flight window until Sunday at the earliest then at breakfast...Bam! pickup un half an hour. Barring a last minute turnaround my next post will be from Union Glacier.

Standing by.
Things are looking better today, the weather is likely to clear this afternoon so we're on 2 hourly rather then daily updates, this afternoon is looking likely for flying.
Punta's a decent place but I'll be glad to see the back of it and get to the ice.

Weather window?
Early call this morning, 6.30...yawn. There's a chance of a tiny weather window between yesterdays 60 knot gale and the next few days cloud and heavy snow, the runway's clear, fingers crossed.
