  Well its the end of the expedition , I just got back from the airport and picked up Richard , Josée and Tessum . Due to unsual ice conditions not seen before , Josée had to put an end to her expidition ,

  But another first for Richard , beeing the first to get from Canada to the north pole unsuported and getting there on snow shoes .  8) 8) 8)

 Yes , there are lots of pics that they took ... if you want an idea of what they look like .. open your freezer , get up close to where there is frost forming up neear the door , grab your camera , zoom in  and clic ....  :D

   I will get him to send me some and I will post a few if  you wuld like to have a looksee .

  The helicopter that went and got Josée out is one big one ... 28 passengers , 4 crewmen , and all the gear for the expition was cramed in there .  They where a bit tired so I did not want to hold um hostage much longer then for two cold ones , but I will see them toimorow and have a lot more info about it all . All's I know for now is just a bit of frostbite , some eye swelling and a few dips in the arctic ocean .

Be sure to tell them how many of us were following them.  ..and that we enjoyed the trip.   Glad they are home safe.  :)
