Here’s a natural English translation:

Today has been a big day!! First of all, we celebrated the 4th Sunday of Advent — lighting candles and singing a song. It was a wonderful way to start the day.

The other big thing that happened today was that we crossed 86 degrees South! That means there are only 444 km left 🙌❄️

Emma got a lollipop, which she receives every time we cross a degree — just like when I was a child and needed a little extra motivation on trips. The motivation is high even without candy 🍭, but of course it tastes very good, so no complaints. Today’s flavor was watermelon 🍉

Happy almost-Christmas! 🤶
