So I laid down for awhile and then later this afternoon the seas calmed down dramatically, and we had lemon meringue pie.
I put the bird partly together and started testing the system to make sure everything is running. We are about a few hours work from being ready to fly. But so far the weather is foggy and we are planning to do oceanography work in Rijpfjorden first (can try google but I don't know so here are our present coordinates. N80o,20.9163' and E022o, 04.6864' or if you want about 80.33N and 22.0E).
That's it for now. There won't be any pictures posted while on this trip now, as the internet connection is slow and expensive for the science funding. Also I will try to post everyday but no promises.
We have encountered out first sea ice floes already as the sea ice is blowing south with the strong North wind we've experienced so far.
That is it for now.
Cheers
Justin
