In the morning, we had a great news, which turned into a bad news a couple of hours later. Our request for camp pull-out today that we made yesterday was approved and the Twin Otter was on its way to pick us up. However, the weather changed dramatically from sunny day to very cloudy, windy day within a couple of hours so the plane had to turn back to the South Pole meaning today's flight is canceled. We moved our camping gears to the cargo line and prepared for taking down our tents but re-setup our camping site, spending more than a couple of hours. We were very disappointed but it was one day earlier anyways and we might be able to leave tomorrow (hopefully).
The weather was good although it was a bit windy (picture taken 09:15 AM)
It became pretty extreme about 4 hours later. (picture taken 01:40 PM)
Being in the sleeping bag inside the cold tent is somewhat claustrophobic, making yourself zipped in the bag pretty tightly and putting a balaclava and sleep shade on your face while sleeping.
