Twin Otter

finally the plane arrived yeasterday. it brought with them mail and we shipped a small puppy to Danmarkshavn. it was only 10 weeks old. but it will have a good life there with lots of good food from the chefs' kitchen...

today the weather changed again. there's a bit of snow in the air, light wind and cloudy.

tomorrow our relief team is supposed to come back home. so in 3-4 days we will be on our move for new adventures. 10 weeks of them!!!

time goes by...

since last time some things have happende. our watermaker is completely and utterly dead. it will not come to life before the summer. this means that we will not be able to produce more water this winter. hopefully there will be enough in the tanks so we could have a bath when we come back to daneborg in 10 weeks...

today we waited and prepared for an airplane, but due to bad weather it was cancelled on iceland. it was the same situation yeasterday.
hopefully we will have it tomorrow? I NEED MAIL!

there were some problems with one of the generators today. it was something with the batteries and the power to the machine. after a few hours we managed the problems and had it up and running again :0)

bad weather again again...

yeasterday the weather was quite nice and calm.
this morning I woke up with snow on my bed.
it was 50-65 knots of wind and minus 20 degrees and lots of snow.
the small puppies were sleeping in a little house/wooden box and the roof had blown off. but i managed to put it on again.
we were supposed to have a plane today, but i think it will be another day...
our watermaker broke down again this night, but due to the bad weather i don't think we will be able to fix it today!
enjoy spring whereever you are
cheers
