737 Leg 2 Mount Vinson - Day 32
Apologies for the lack of contact for a few days, had sat phone issues! I caught a lift to Union Glacier Base Camp on the 9th in a supply plane. Was hoping to catch a flight on 10th back to Punta Arenas and then fly on to Santiago but poor weather and still no flight. Now there is a national strike in Punta over fuel - might stop me flying! Good job I am ahead on times! Getting twitchy now, it’s hard to be patient but I must be. Still love the guys here..I am treading the line between going soft and resting! Cold and windy here and I have run out of wet wipes today too! In good spirits, feeling confident and strong. Spilt pee bottle in my sleeping bag last night. It was too cold to get out, lucky it was a small spill! Had to also fix snapped lace in boots too.
