The wind has been a bad influence the last days, throwing us back south day by day. Last days we struggled to arrive at 70 km every evening just to wake up kilometers further away. By this morning we drifted away to 80 km, again. No use in pursisting this way. Probably we will be picked up by helicopter to first fly us to the northpole to give us the possibility to take some pictures and then bring us back to Barneo station.
Although the wind should turn south and finally give us the right push for the next couple of days, it’s too little too late.
