Scott, as many of you will know, was beaten to it by Roald Amundsen and his Norwegian team, who used dogs and dogsleds. Scott's team were on foot, all five of them wearing harnesses and dragging around sledges, and they arrived at the pole to find the Norwegian flag already there, I'd imagine pretty bitter and demoralized.
Kā jau daudzi no jums zina, Skotu apsteidza Roalds Amundsens un viņa norvēģu komanda, kas izmantoja suņus un suņu pajūgus. Skota komanda gāja kājām, visi pieci valkāja iejūgus un vilka kamanas, un, nokļuvuši līdz polam, viņi atrada plīvojošu Norvēģijas karogu, domāju, ka viņi bija diezgan sarūgtināti un demoralizēti.
