After the finals...

We got back from London, pretty tired from carrying all our equipment on the tubes in rush hour (nearly taking some people's eyes out along the way with our 7ft metal poles), and were told we'd be on BBC news breakfast TV, live, the next morning at some crazily early time - god, it's tough being famous - but it was really worth it, because we had quite a long interview (Ben Saunders was there as well) and it was great to see the BBC studios, see a few famous faces...(well, you can't prove that we didn't) and get our make-up done! I think the hype has pretty much calmed down now, there's only a few paparazzi still outside my door.

I know everyone's saying this, but Svalbard is going to be A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! I was in New York last week and saw these gorgeous polar bears in the zoo, swimming right up close to you, and now I can't wait to see them in the wild! Even though they can rip your head off, they're just the cutest! But what I really really can't wait for is - dog sledding!!
Hi to everyone else on the trip, looking forward to meeting you again soon!
