We have had quite a few long-distance skiers at the Pole this year, but these gentlemen stand out in several ways. They have come from McMurdo Sound, on the New Zealand side of Antarctica, and not from Patriot Hills ...

Here we are very near to the North Pole, having a party on the drifting ice . The passengers and crew were in a festive mood despite our awakening for the arrival at the Pole in the middle of last night.
