Day 49 Trek to the South Pole

"Conditions may become favorable for me to use the kite today as the wind seems to be turning and coming from the west. The kids normally move faster than me during the day and I meet up with them at the campsite in the evening. If I can use the kite I may ski past them during the day and beat them to the campsite. That'll be fun but I best not get my hopes up too much because the last time I took my kite out it was a complete disaster."
