00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:35,200 wind without the slightest polar equipment and 434 00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:38,799 with extremely little supplies 435 00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:41,200 a long and hard winter awaited us 436 00:20:38,799 --> 00:20:45,159 At the end of February the situation had 437 00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:47,159 Very critical tornado on snwh Hill six 438 00:20:45,159 --> 00:20:49,559 men

tent 448 00:21:08,919 --> 00:21:13,240 luck within misfortune was that in 449 00:21:10,919 --> 00:21:16,400 Polet Island had a crater of a 450 00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:18,240 volcano full of drinking water also the 451 00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:20,799 The land was made of pebbles and 452 00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:22,840 devoid of ice which facilitated 453 00:21:20,799 --> 00:21:25,000 building a tent 454 00:21:22,840 --> 00:21:27,159 rectangular both here and in the Bay 455 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:29,520 of hope everyone survived 456 00:21:27,159 --> 00:21:31,799 hardship and poor nutrition 457 00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:34,279 suffered throughout the winter 458 00:21:31,799 --> 00:21:37,279 Unfortunately there was an exception 459 00:21:34,279 --> 00:21:39,679 sailor ule vener gord died on 7 460 00:21:37,279 --> 00:21:42,679 June due to heart disease 461 00:21:39,679 --> 00:21:45,080 congenital and tuberculosis was 462 00:21:42,679 --> 00:21:46,070 buried under some stones at about 200

bitterly that something 467 00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:59,520 unpleasant had to have happened already 468 00:21:56,200 --> 00:22:01,600 that the ship had not returned 469 00:21:59,520 --> 00:22:04,360 The biggest concern was to know if the 470 00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:06,039 ship had been wrecked the previous year and 471 00:22:04,360 --> 00:22:08,520 therefore they would not have been able to inform 472 00:22:06,039 --> 00:22:11,880 to the world where the expedition had 473 00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:15,279 installed your station 474 00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:17,520 main norther sh did not fit 475

they could reach for 478 00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:27,840 a year including what was obtained from 479 00:22:25,159 --> 00:22:30,480 place like being penguin meat and 480 00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:33,159 seal what had ended was the 481 00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:35,520 coal that they had to replace with 482 00:22:33,159 --> 00:22:40,480 grease 483 00:22:35,520 --> 00:22:43,360 seal and this budman tells what 484 00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:46,400 happened the first winter we had a 485 00:22:43,360 --> 00:22:49,200 very satisfying life with food drink 486 00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:51,480 and there was a real homely warmth 487 00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:53,159 but what we had not counted on was 488 00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:55,799 that we should spend a second 489 00:22:53,159 --> 00:22:59,000 winter since the ship did not come to 490 00:22:55,799 --> 00:23:01,559 pick us up at the beginning of the year 190 491 00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:04,120 just as planned and so it was 492 00:23:01,559 --> 00:23:06,679 that another winter came upon us 493 00:23:04,120 --> 00:23:09,080 The only thing that was abundant was flour with 494 00:23:06,679 --> 00:23:11,919 that we made pancakes and other foods 495 00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:14,480 anything else the food was scarce 496 00:23:11,919 --> 00:23:16,400 The main dish was penguin meat. 497 00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:18,760 fuel consisted essentially of 498 00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:21,240 seal fat the fire based on this 499 00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:23,960 fat was handled by yasen in the following way 500 00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:25,600 way he riveted a sheet metal box which 501 00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:27,919 introduced into the chamber of fathoms 502 00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:30,240 our husquarna kitchen then 503 00:23:27,919 --> 00:23:33,480 He lit the fire with old boxes and 504 00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:35,799 I placed the fat on top, it is melted 505 00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:37,720 It was deposited inside the sheet metal box 506 00:23:35,799 --> 00:23:40,600 the fat oil provided us 507 00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:43,360 heating which was sometimes 508 00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:45,840 excessive then we will listen to 509 00:23:43,360 --> 00:23:48,960 juvan gunar anderson tell about the 510 00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:48,960 three in Bahia 511 00:23:49,159 --> 00:23:54,080 Hope we had gone out to give 512 00:23:52,679 --> 00:23:56,880 our return in 513 00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:58,919 sledding in hopes of changing the 514 00:23:56,880 --> 00:24:00,720 emergency situation in which we 515 00:23:58,919 --> 00:24:03,480 we found 516 00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:08,000 and that the ship arrived with the 517 00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:08,000 companions who had remained in 518 00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:15,200 Snow on many occasions we went up to the 519 00:24:12,520 --> 00:24:18,120 continental ice cover since 520 00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:20,000 where I found the open blue waters 521 00:24:18,120 --> 00:24:22,520 between the mass of ice 522 00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:25,120 floating for my two excellent 523 00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:27,679 colleagues, inactivity became 524 00:24:25,120 --> 00:24:29,960 heavy I had the great luck to do 525 00:24:27,679 --> 00:24:32,960 a discovery that totally captivated 526 00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:35,840 my interest spread over the Earth 527 00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:38,240 low frost from the place where we camped 528 00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:40,720 I found some slate plates with 529 00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:42,960 magnificent fossils of plants from a 530 00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:45,960 ancient flora of that coast now 531 00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:45,960 captured by him 532 00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:51,880 ice it was also possible for me to identify 533 00:24:49,919 --> 00:24:54,600 the mountain where these came from 534 00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:57,919 findings and assigned the name 535 00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:59,080 mountain of flora but they passed 536 00:24:57,919 --> 00:25:01,520 days 537 00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:03,440 the weeks that turned into months without 538 00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:05,760 that the antarctic 539 00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:08,399 the obligation to pass the 540 00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:10,840 winter became a certainty 541 00:25:08,399 --> 00:25:13,159 painfully we agreed and 542 00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:15,520 we decided to build a Choa with solids 543 00:25:13,159 --> 00:25:18,000 stone walls and as a roof we placed 544 00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:21,159 the sleigh upside down like an easel 545 00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:23,080 covering it with a tarp after having 546 00:25:21,159 --> 00:25:25,279 placed inside our belongings 547 00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:28,320 there was barely any space to 548 00:25:25,279 --> 00:25:30,360 the three of us lay down on the floor 549 00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:32,720 done everything possible to caulk the 550 00:25:30,360 --> 00:25:35,279 stone walls with thick sand and 551 00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:38,200 then we fix it with snow on the part 552 00:25:35,279 --> 00:25:40,679 outside however when they began to 553 00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:44,159 roar the winter storms 554 00:25:40,679 --> 00:25:44,159 interior got cold 555

00:26:34,520 animals we used it as 571 00:26:31,159 --> 00:26:36,880 fuel when burning this emitted 572 00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:39,960 a lot of smoke because we never could 573 00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:43,039 operate a draft towards the 574 00:26:39,960 --> 00:26:44,720 exterior Winter already ending 575 00:26:43,039 --> 00:26:46,559 we start with all kinds of 576 00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:48,799

00:27:12,600 old underwear and pieces of other 586 00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:14,919 clothes on September 2 I made myself 587 00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:17,279 a walk to get a wide view 588 00:27:14,919 --> 00:27:19,240 of the Bay where the previous summer 589 00:27:17,279 --> 00:27:21,200 we had crossed the iceberg with 590 00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:24,399 ice ponds 591 00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:27,159 melted
