Hopefully the flight from Novo to Cape Town will leave on schedule to night and Gísli Karel will then be in Cape Town tomorrow morning. It will be quite a difference temperature wise, since it is minus 20 in Novo but plus 30 in Cape Town! The maintenance of the cars in Novo was easier than everyone had expected and the last few days he has been transporting people around the area.
The drive back from the fuel stop is going well so far. They took off this morning and have already driven 400 kilometres and are planning to drive well into the night. They still have 1100 kilometres to go before they get to Novo. The tracks are fine and they have managed to keep the speed at 40 kilometres pr. hour. Mike and Gísli are travelling together in one car Andrey, Freyr and the Russian guy who jumped from the plane are travelling in the other one. The weather is good, temperature is minus 30.
The area ahead is more dangerous, there are lots of crevasses there but they have the equipment that search for crevasses on the front of the car which makes this journey much safer.
