Despite a sleeping rhythm very disturbed with the polar night, Michael is
trying to enjoy every day's short period of glow, at midday, to visit the
dogs. These are still on shore, waiting for pack ice to be thick enough to set
up their dogs houses next to the boat. Polar bears are losing patience as
well, and there are more visits now. Michael is watching a film daily, a way
to get out for a while. He had a hard time when daylight totally disappeared,
"probably the time I needed to measure the night... now I'm feeling better."
