A quick test post…

Isafjordur…from Reykjavik airport. We're currently waiting for a flight up to Isafjordur, our last stop in Iceland before flying up to Greenland on a Twin Otter (the same type of plane that picked me up from the North Pole last year).

The flight out from London yesterday went surprisingly smoothly; not only did the fantastic Icelandair accommodate our 200kg of excess baggage without batting an eyelid, they also did the same for Paul Landry's four-strong team, heading out to Greenland at the same time as us. We couldn't have hoped for a better start to the trip.

I'm sending this via our Iridium satphone – everything seems to be working well so far. More soon…
