13 August Sunday (54) High S.E. wind (6-8) all night and untill after 9 o'clock this morning. Then began to moderate somewhat. Thickly cloudy till after 10 a.m., but almost cloudless by 11 a.m. and day became beautiful. Very light N. wind about noon. Ice driven out from bay and clear all the way to Cape Athos. Temp. 8a. 38 1/2°; 12m. 41° Had a bad night in the tent on account of the wind. I got very little sleep, but Erik slept all right till about 5:15 this morning. Then wind was so strong that the tent began to tear and we let it down upon us. At 5:30 we got up, furled the tent and took our sleeping rigs into the house End of the tent, I presume.
