Lyudmila Korobeshko from Antarctica: Group yesterday started towards the South Pole
Good afternoon! It is Lyudmila Korobeshko saying from Antarctica. Now we are on the route. Yesterday we arrived by plane on the 88th degree, and we began to move. We were five people: me and four guys from Kazakhstan ... all sport-athletes. Yesterday we went only 3 hours, it is about 7 kilometers. Today we started at 9 am and went to almost 5 pm. Not much, 17 kilometers, but it is for the first day, in general, not bad. Along the way, we broke two fixtures, but fortunately we had a replacement. If something else breaks, already we will have to invent something. Yesterday it was warm enough, somewhere minus 21. Today in the evening there is more cold, I think, somewhere minus 25 - minus 30.
Basically, it's okay, we're moving on.
Greetings and Happy Holidays!
