After sorting out the equipment (and a well deserved shower!), some of us managed to get on the night plane to Oslo, while others will depart [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Its Saturday 22nd of April. Yesterday was spent waiting for the Russian helicopter, and in the meantime we arranged a scooting context with my 44 magnum revolver, which I brought as polar bear protection. There were some point blank hits, but not too many. We also demonstrated the drysuit Thomas brought. This suit is used [...]]]></description>

It has not been an easy task, and today has been the coldest day on the whole trip, minus 22 and with a chilling wind straight in the face. [...]]]></description>

They expect to reach the Pole after a pleasant short day tomorrow the 20th. They plan to spend one or possibly two night at the Pole itself, before [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Hi it’s Svante again, 18th of April. After a delicious porridge breakfast, we started on a very difficult task. When we came to the large lead, we saw that yesterday’s reconnaissance was in vain. The lead had widened another 50 meter and become frighten large. We had to ski along the lead for a whole [...]]]></description>

This morning met us with lots of fresh soft snow and more whiteout (low clouds or falling snow where shadows and contours on the ground disappear, it makes skiing more difficult). Conditions improved after two-three warm and hard hours, clouds lifted and weather got a bit colder. The rest of [...]]]></description>

Even though it was lousy weather all night, our meteorologist in Switzerland, Hans Ambühl – the same guy who provided us with weather reports during our expedition – said there should be a short spell of good weather in the middle of the day. And he was right! [...]]]></description>

Right now it’s snowing and there is an 8-metre per second westerly wind. The aeroplane has no chance of landing on the ice under such weather conditions. But our [...]]]></description>
