We have had two delightfully calm days since the storm passed through. We have taken the opportunity to exercise the ponies when there are a few hours of light at midday. Clissold has taken two of the dogs in hand and drove them out to Cape Royds yesterday with 100lbs of biscuit; they did well, considering Meares had written them off.
We had a splendidly successful balloon ascent yesterday. Nelson and Atkinson are doing good work.
My afternoon walk has become a great pleasure; everything is beautiful in this half light and the northern sky grows redder as the light wanes.
