2224 and 0011 (possible schedule for communications today) Frank de Winne takes the microphone and speaks with people on earth, possibly also his wife. Very special to hear the Dutch language from space. The last time I heard this was during the flight of the first Dutch astronaut Wubbo Ockels in 1985.
Frank tells that he is feeling well now. The first hours of his flight he had the feeling that his stomach was turning around, but he did not suffer from nausea.
He had heard that during the launch the visibility for the people on the cosmodrome was very bad.
Pass in orbit 20: 0923-0928UTC.
Lonchakov reports that situation is good. The crew is now ready for a long period of rest.
They switched off the ventilators in de SA and switched the ventilators on in the BO, where they are now. The crew will continue the sleep experiment Aquarius.

Estimated time docking at Pirs ISS: 1 November at 0500UTC.
For listeners in Western Europe voice communications during the final approach can be expected during orbit ISS between 0445-0453UTC.
