Live Update from Antarctica November 30, 2015 at 03:37PM

Yep thats right, although we arrived at Union Glacier and our sleds are now fully packed and ready to go, we are unable to fly to the start point due to a severe weather front. 40-50mph winds and horizontal snow has meant that the planes on site have had to be anchored by trucks. Although yesterday we went out for a 10km ski with the sleds to test everything out in the whiteout - today, even that is impossible. This of course is unusual for this time of year! This statement seems to be following me around this year! So, the latest update is that we should be able to fly out on Thursday! Fingers crossed.
