The team arrived in Cape Town on yesterday morning. We get the boots which will be used on the field and checked the cargo this morning at the warehouse. We have news from the Princess Elisabeth Station, so the base seems to run again and ready to welcome the first Belgium scientific team of the BELARE 2013-2014 season. However, the weather in Novo “airport” seems to be not good enough for landing.The D3 flight (our flight) to Antarctica may be delay by one or more days. We will have more information during the ALCI (Antarctic flight operator) briefing this afternoon. We heard that will be in the plane with the Prince Harry (http://www.princehenryofwales.org/news-and-diary/prince-harry-attends-the-south-pole-2013-departure-event-trafalgar-square). We hope to have a royal flight!!
