Update from Dale Andersen in Cape Town: “Looks like we will leave tomorrow as scheduled assuming the weather holds – so we hope to be on the ice by 6am Thursday Novolazarevskaya time. Its about a 6 hour flight from Cape Town to the station. Three to four days later, we should be on our way to Lake Untersee if the weather is good.”

Editor’s note: Dale and I have been doing this sort of thing for a long time. We’re almost certain that he and I did one of the first websites updated from Antarctica back in 1997. Go to this website and see “How We Built This Website”.
